Given that the Municipality of Anadia has an important hotel industry in the Termas da Curia, and other units in Anadia and Sangalhos, the sports dynamic is undoubtedly an important economic enabler for this region, plus the Thermal, Wineries and Gastronomic.

Tourism is an important trigger of the local economy. This is a region of good food and it is also one of the most recognized Portugal’s wine regions.
Sparkling wines are inseparable from this region. Their grapes have a high degree of acidity and low graduation, which makes them perfect for the production of sparkling wine, characterized by a very fine aroma.

There are numerous ideal points of interest to discover the region’s wines and the whole wine culture and tradition. It is worth the visit to numerous cellars and wineries in the region, where you can sample wine. You shouldn’t miss a visit to the Bairrada Wine Museum in Anadia.
