On the banks of the Mondego River lies Coïmbra, one of Europe's oldest university towns. A walk through the narrow, steep streets of the old town is an exhausting but interesting experience. In the medieval city center, which is terraced, most of the monuments are close together. Because of its central location, Coimbra is also an ideal starting point for excursions to, among others, the very beautiful Templar town of Tomar, the famous pilgrimage site of Fatima and the seaside resort of Figueira da Foz. Not to be missed is the National Park of Bussaco, with its unusual Palace Hotel.
