Venue (cont.)

In Coimbra the river has always been sung, and the students have given and they still give the city fados and ballads, books and poems, dreams and “Saudade”.

Near the city of Coimbra, about circa 16 km, in Condeixa-a-Nova lies the ruins of Conímbriga, an ancient Roman town, classified as a National Monument.

The city walls are largely intact, and the mosaic floors and foundations of many houses and public buildings remain intact as well.
