Visit the Garden of Bom Jesus do Monte - Tenões (Braga)

The Bom Jesus do Monte Garden is located in Sanctuary of Bom Jesus, in the parish of Tenões. This picturesque and paradisiac place, invites to rest and meditation, has a huge diversity of species of trees; dense vegetation (heather, moss, herbs); pleasant retreats; some caves; water breaking everywhere; springs; streets, paths and paths; rustic bridges; plant nurseries.
From the year 1877, a commission headed by António Brandão Pereira will draw up a first plan for the construction of a park and a lake.
Hence the existence of the lake, enlarged in 1908, extending southwards along cliffs from which flows the water to the lake.
Throughout the park, and in the shade of old and leafy trees, we found tables and benches for picnics.
