On This Page:Leiria Travel Guide
On the road to Coimbra, Leiria rests on the banks of the Liz and spreads over the surrounding hills. Though the modern-day town is industrial, it's still an inviting stop, with its hilltop castle, old quarter, and cathedral. Leiria is also the center of an area rich in handcrafts, like hand-blown glassware. Its folklore is comparable to that of neighboring Ribatejo. This city of 105,000 is an important transportation hub and a convenient point for exploring Nazaré or Fátima or the Atlantic coast beaches.
