Vias Augustas de Chaves
Set of narrow streets and pedestrian currently built in the middle ages. In the past, within the walls of Keys, small homes were built of several floors and balconies on the upper floors, in order to monetize the space. Many of these balconies still exist, making this site a typical and picturesque place.
