Workation in Coimbra: the essentials
From 1131 to 1255 Coimbra was the capital of Portugal, then it became the country's university town, and the old University of Coimbra on the hilltop, with the baroque Joanina Library, is now a UNESCO site. About 140,000 people live in the municipality, and students set the rhythm, from the black capes to the Queima das Fitas festival in May. The Roman past shows in the cryptoporticus under the city museum and in the ruins of Conímbriga nearby. The upper town is seriously steep and things go quiet in the holidays. Coworking is easy to find, trains on the main line serve Lisbon and Porto, Figueira da Foz and its beaches are 40 km west, and Porto Airport is about 120 km north.
