About this Natural Area

The Viewpoint of Favaios (Santa Barbara) is located in a rural and isolated, perched on a small hill called Santa Barbara and overlooking the village of Favaios. It is enjoying a magnificent panorama over the same region, mainly wine production - the famous "Muscatel Favaios" and Marão Mountains. The chapel of Santa Barbara has a plant built on top longitudinal single mass, with coverage in gable roof. The facades are plastered and painted white, with Tuscan pilasters in the corners, crowned by pyramidal spiers on rectangular plinths, traveled by the stone foundation and terminated in frieze and cornice framed.
