The Douro Wine Museum, Regua, Portugal


 

The Douro Museum is by the Douro river in Portugal. Wines are taken down this river to the big Port city of Oporto, from where ships carry Port to England.

The Douro Museum is a large building and te museum is on two floor with a large shop below.

THe display I enjoyed the most was the aromatic dispaly. Lots of bottles filled with aromas.. You lift the lid, lean dowwn and sniff.. Heady delight. A wall of aromas. Rose. Lavender. Lemon. Mint. Ginger. Better than a perfume factory.

Down stairs in the shop you can try out testers, before buying perfumed soaps, hand creams and other perfumed items.

The Portuguese is Museu do Douro, Museum of Douro.

This was the secodn best and biggest wine attraction I found in Portugal, after WOW in Oporto.
