The Tui International Bridge is a landmark on the border between Portugal and Spain, connecting the Galician city of Tui to Valença, Portugal, across the Minho River. This historic metal truss bridge serves as a crossing for cars, trains, and pedestrians. It is also part of the Camino de Santiago route, offering views of the river and both cities.

Amazing views of the river and town. The northern gate exit is a beautiful old gate and walkway cut from big ancient boulders; it leads down to the river with wide stairs, but it's possible to walk the bike down, and well worth it.

The church is located in the fortress or old town of Valenca on the Caminho Português da Costa, the Portuguese Way of St. James. From the outside, the building is kept relatively simple in the Rococo style or late Baroque, but the interior is very beautiful with the side altars and the cupola in the apse.

Neoclassical church with longitudinal plan, with 3 naves. The Colegiada de Santo Estêvão de Valença was headquartered here, as well as the Bishopric of Ceuta. From those times it is possible to appreciate the bispal chair, in Gothic-Mudejar style, as well as the armchairs and paintings from the life of Stº Estevão. The temple still preserves the only existing picture in Portugal of the Virgin breastfeeding the boy who escaped the Inquisition.
The Roman Milestone marks the 42 miles distance from Braga to Tui and was built by Emperor Cláudio in the 1st century AD. Throughout the ages it also served as a pillory. Roman route XIX enters Valença via Fontoura, crosses Cerdal on the Pedreira bridge and reached the vein of Valença where it crossed to Tui. A route for military, commercial and pacification purposes.
