Overview of the tour in Braga

This visit starts at the façade of the main church. The present Sanctuary that we see today had its construction initiated in 1722, under the patronage of the Archbishop of Braga, Rodrigo de Moura Telles. Under his direction, the first stairway row, with chapels dedicated to the Via Crucis, was completed. Each chapel is decorated with wooden sculptures depicting the Passion of Christ. He also sponsored the next segment of stairways, which has a zigzag shape and is dedicated to the Five Senses. Each sense (Sight, Smell, Hearing, Touch, Taste) is represented by a different fountain. Do not miss visiting with us this world heritage site of UNESCO and come across the picturesque interests of Bom Jesus do Monte.
In this tour, you will surely enjoy the greatness of this Baroque pearl mixed with nature. With local guides, one can grasp our religious, traditional, and cultural heritage through a visit to the Bom Jesus do Monte.
