And this is Bom Jesus, Braga (also home to the wonderful stadium by Eduardo Souta de Mora). Baroque church with rather dashing steps leading up to it. (Not the ones in the picture above, but several hundred before them, undrawn.) Catholic pilgrims climb the steps on their knees, and I do admit to feeling a not inconsiderable urge to join in the fun. A man sitting in the passenger seat of the car in the foreground was mad, and kept yelling indiscriminately at passers by. Perhaps he has come to be healed?
