Hiking

As with other squares with the same name, Praça da República continues the Portuguese tradition of being one of the most important public spaces in Braga. Located on the western side of the city's historic center, it comes alive every day from mid-morning until late in the evening. During this time, it is filled with locals who come to enjoy a bite to eat at the cafes and restaurants that line the square, including Café Vianna and Café Astória, both of which have been serving customers for around 150 years. Others simply come expecting to bump into friends and family.
