Europe's Cultural Capitals
It started with Linz and now there is also Guimarães. Hopefully in the following years more beautiful European Cities will follow.
One funny story: the Concept of "European Cultural City" was created in January 1985, due to an airport conversation between the French and Greek Ministers of Culture, while waiting for their flights...
Let's hope and work for it, so that in between 2020-2030, Aveiro will be the Portuguese Capital of Culture.
Linz
Guimarães 2012 - Europe's Capital of Culture (with Maribor)
One day and one night to visit the city where Portugal was born, and where everyone in Portugal wants to go in 2012. A great Cultural Program along the year invites not only portuguese but also to tourists to join this celebration.
