Barcelos Fairgrounds

I always find it strange when fairgrounds are in the city center, but this is the case in Barcelos. The "Campo da Feira", designed by the architect Marques da Silva, is surrounded by some of the major historical buildings of the area such as the Church of Bom Jesus de la Cruz, the House of Mercy, Church of Our Lady of the Rosary and the Baroque Garden.
