Solo travel

I went to Coimbra 2 days ago and i can tell that Coimbra is one of the best cities in Portugal. The streets, culture, songs, buildings, and the view of the river were amazing. University is one of the oldest Unis. and did you know J.K Rowling was inspired of this University to write Harry Potter? I had so much fun. Besides it was quite safe. I liked almost every corner of the city.

Solo travel

I loved Coimbra. It's a university city. On the river level, there is a splendid promenade with brilliant cafes and street music. The hills are full of beautiful universities. I listened to Fado in an ancient cafe chapel and took an old boat tour with a guide. I stayed in a very reasonably priced boutique hotel, right by the promenade.
