Sometimes called the Venice of Portugal, Aveiro has about 54,162 residents along a network of canals fed by the Ria de Aveiro lagoon. Colourful moliceiros, flat-bottomed boats originally used to collect seaweed (molico) for fertiliser, now carry tourists through the canals past Art Nouveau facades. The city's architecture reflects the wealth generated by the salt and cod trades in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.
The Museu de Aveiro occupies the former Convento de Jesus, where Princess Joana, daughter of Afonso V, lived as a nun from 1472 until her death in 1490. Her Baroque tomb, carved from Italian marble, is considered one of the finest funerary monuments in Portugal. Aveiro's ovos moles (soft eggs), a confection of egg yolk and sugar wrapped in wafer shells shaped like shells and barrels, holds PGI (Protected Geographical Indication) status from the EU.
The Costa Nova beach, five kilometres west, is famous for its palheiros, striped wooden houses originally built as fishermen's huts that have become an emblem of Portuguese coastal architecture. The University of Aveiro, founded in 1973, brought a research campus to the city's outskirts.
