Aveiro, often called the "Venice of Portugal," is a coastal city in central Portugal known for its network of canals, Art Nouveau architecture, and rich cultural heritage.

The city's history is deeply connected to its salt production and fishing industry, particularly the harvesting of seaweed and the production of salt in its traditional saltpans. The city center features distinctive colorful moliceiro boats that traditionally were used for seaweed collection but now primarily serve tourism.

Aveiro has a significant artistic legacy, particularly visible in its collection of Art Nouveau buildings and traditional azulejo tile work that adorns many facades. The city is also an important educational center, home to the University of Aveiro, which contributes to its dynamic cultural scene. The local culture is strongly influenced by its maritime heritage and is reflected in its museums, traditional crafts, and gastronomy, including its famous ovos moles, a sweet egg-based delicacy.
