Póvoa de Lanhoso is located in the heart of the vinho verde demarcated wine region, about 17 km northeast of Braga. It is also well known for the quarrying and cutting of granite, as well as its filigree gold products and other attractions (see separate entries). About 3 km to the west of the town, in the Lugar do Mosteiro of the village of Fonte Arcada, is a 12th century Romanesque church which is well worth visiting. The delicious roast kid, excellent veal and the typical maize bread of the region are a gastronomic delight.
