Location

The Parque da Feira is serenely established in the locality of Tortosendo, a picturesque spot in the municipality of Covilhã, within the district of Castelo Branco. Its location allows it to benefit from the characteristic surroundings of Cova da Beira, where the transition between more urbanized landscapes and the foothills of Serra da Estrela is felt, providing an environment that is both accessible and with a rural touch. The park integrates into the fabric of Tortosendo itself, assuming itself as one of its green lungs and a local reference point.

Natural Character and Serene Environment

This space is predominantly marked by a generous presence of natural elements, offering its visitors a refuge of tranquility. The extensive grassy areas invite relaxation and strolling, while various tree species provide shade and a cool environment, especially during the warmer months. The layout of the green areas and pedestrian paths encourages a slower pace, ideal for those seeking a moment of pause and connection with the natural environment. The pure air and quietness, sometimes only broken by the chirping of birds, contribute to the relaxing atmosphere of the Parque da Feira.

Space for Conviviality and Local Memory

The Parque da Feira, by its very name, evokes a tradition of gatherings and community life. Throughout the history of Tortosendo, this place has played an important role as a convergence point, an open space where people met, marking the rhythm of local life. Although today it is a park dedicated to leisure and the enjoyment of nature, its layout and essence preserve the memory of a place for conviviality. It is a place where the community can gather for moments of relaxation, walks, or simply to appreciate the outdoor environment, reflecting its importance as a social and well-being epicenter for residents and visitors alike.
