To the south of Vigo, 30 kilometers away, the last stretch of the Río Miño extends, marking the border with Portugal. Throughout its course, the town of Tui stands out, with its medieval historic center, the second in importance and one of the best preserved in Galicia, and its Romanesque fortress Cathedral, Santa María de Tui, Asset of Cultural Interest. From the Monte Aloia Natural Park you can see impressive views of the city, and of Valença de Minho, on the Portuguese border. At the mouth of the river is the traditional fishing village of A Guarda, at the foot of Mount Santa Tecla, 341 meters high, from where you can admire the spectacular views of the river opening to the Atlantic Ocean and visit the Celtic archaeological remains of the most important fortified town in Galicia, inhabited before the Roman conquest (1st BC-1st AD).
