Discovering Conimbriga and the Sicó Caves (full day)

Coimbra Trip Overview

The Roman Empire had a tremendous weight in our culture and evidence of this can be found a little everywhere in the Sicó area.

In this adventure we will discover the complex of Roman ruins of Conímbriga where you can contemplate the architectural capacity of the Roman people and the way they lived.

From here we will head towards another “ex-libbris” of this region, the Casmilo Buracas, majestic geological formations that were once complexes of subterranean caves that are now exposed to the surface.

Finally we will see remnants of a structure that was used to defend attacks such as the Castelo of the Germanello and another example of the genius and ingenuity of the Roman people, the Castellum de Alcabideque.

All this and much more is what we will take to discover in this Adventure …
