    Miguel was a great guide to Elvas. He had a deep knowledge of the town and its history, and the history that it played a role in. He was enthusiastic and friendly - the ideal guide.

    ... great work of engineering and why not of architecture .... the light passing through the different gaps of different dimensions provide a fantastic play of shadows ... it is difficult not to waste time appreciating every inch of this viaduct ... It's not worth exaggerating... every meter. It's worth the walk, it's worth the view, it's worth the visit to walk, look, stop in the morning or in the afternoon or at the end of the afternoon... it's always different. To not lose
