The portuguese city of Barcelos has just received the label “CreativeFriendlyDestination” from the Creative Tourism Network®

Barcelos is not only known for being the cradle of the Rooster of Barcelos (Galo de Barcelos); the Portuguese emblem and symbol of good faith and justice and the most popular tourist symbols of Portugal!

The city of Barcelos, built around the tradition in crafts and folk arts, owns an undeniable history and cultural heritage of great social value. This is well reflected in the craftsmanship work in various arts, such as clay, embroidery, weaving, timber, iron, leather, wicker and in the contemporary arts.

County town with just under 120,000 inhabitants, Barcelos creates a strong bond between the local residents and the crafts community, paving the way for a sustainable creative sector.

Barcelos bets on the creative interactions, through hands-on workshops, where tourists and visitors can have the opportunity to learn an art and became creators.
