Ovar is a city located in the Aveiro District of Portugal, known for its rich cultural heritage and distinctive architectural features. The city is particularly famous for its collection of azulejos (traditional Portuguese painted tiles) that adorn many of its buildings, earning it the nickname "The City Museum of Tile." The historic center of Ovar features numerous examples of 19th-century architecture decorated with these colorful ceramic tiles, creating an open-air gallery of Portuguese decorative arts.

The city also maintains strong cultural traditions, including its carnival celebrations, which are among the most notable in Portugal. Besides its architectural heritage, Ovar is known for its traditional gastronomy, particularly the 'Pão de Ló de Ovar,' a special type of sponge cake that has been granted protected geographical status.
