North Portugal seems to be largely undiscovered by tourists. Far from the popular Algarve coast, it boasts beautiful hills and mountains (Serra d'Estrela), spectacular river banks (the Portwine region along the Douro river), ancient villages and towns, beautiful cathedrals (in Guarda, for instance), much granite and a friendly population.

These photographs were made in May 2007 when we stayed in the village of Sernancelhe and made trips to Penedono with its fortress ruins, the market town Trancoso and the Douro region.
