Getting There

• Walking

  If you are starting from the Viseu city center, make your way to Rua Direita, a main street in the area. Walk north along Rua Direita until you reach the intersection with Rua do Comércio. Turn left onto Rua do Comércio and continue walking for about 5 minutes. You will then reach Praça da República, a central square. From there, head towards Largo Santo António, which is just a short 3-minute walk away. Keep an eye out for the signs directing you towards Jardim Sensorial de Santo António, located at Largo Santo António 9. The garden is a lovely spot to relax and enjoy the natural surroundings.

• Public Transport

  In Viseu, public transport options are limited, but you can take a bus from the Viseu Bus Station (Estação de Autocarros de Viseu). Look for a bus heading to 'Centro' or 'Câmara Municipal'. Once you arrive at the city center, exit the bus and head towards Praça da República. From there, it's only a 5-minute walk to Largo Santo António. Follow the directions mentioned previously, walking along Rua Direita and turning left onto Rua do Comércio.

• Bicycle

  If you prefer cycling, you can rent a bike from one of the bike-sharing stations in the city. Start from the city center and head towards Avenida da Europa. Continue straight until you reach the intersection with Avenida do 1º de Maio. Turn right and then take the first left onto Largo Santo António. The journey should take about 10-15 minutes, depending on your cycling speed. You will find Jardim Sensorial de Santo António at Largo Santo António 9.
