With some great day trip options available in the surrounding area, having your own car makes sense. Without one, it wouldn’t be half as easy to explore all that Castelo Branco, 25 miles away, has to offer. Branco Castle, Nossa Senhora da Piedade Chapel and Francisco Tavares Proenca Junior Museum alone justify the drive. Located 30 miles away, Fundao is another place to aim for. If you stop by, be sure to check out A Moagem - Cidade do Engenho e das Artes, Mother Church of Fundao and Archaeological Museum of Fundao.
