From its high plateau, VISEU surveys the country around with the air of a feudal overlord, and indeed, this dignified little city is capital of all it can see.
Its medieval heart has changed little, though the approach to it is now through the broad avenues of a prosperous provincial centre: parts of the walls survive and it's within their circuit, breached by two doughty gateways, that almost everything of interest lies.
