Aveiro, Portugal - Foodie Travel Guide

Aviero is often called “The Venice of Portugal” for its canals and delightful gondola-like traditional boats that were once used to transport salt to the city. Today, tourists are the cargo, floating down the canals to see Art Deco buildings and the colorful bridges of Aveiro.

Foodie travel writer Brent Petersen tells the stories of the local crepe with a gross name and the iconic local pastry’s ties to Aveiro’s maritime heritage. There’s also candy-striped houses and a lighthouse that needs climbing!
