After taking a canal tour that went near the salt beds we asked about seeing them up close and discovered that it was free to walk around them. You can walk all along the beds and there is information in Portuguese and English that explains how the salt is harvested ... a difficult job and still done manually. I thought it was very interesting and made a point to pick up some salt (very cheap! ) from the stores to take home.
6. Casinha de Bonecas
Casinha de Bonecas is a museum located right in the center of Aveiro. It is a project with the quality stamp of the renowned Museu do Brincar, located in the neighboring municipality of Vagos.
