Walk through Provesende
Provesende, Sabrosa, Portugal
Provesende sits among vineyards on the north side of the Douro, with stone houses and manor buildings that invite a slower look. Wander past the church, old fountain and pillory, noticing the details of doorways and façades along the way. The traditional bakery adds another reason to stop when it is open. Treat the village as a place where people live, and arrange transport in advance if you are combining it with visits farther down the valley.
