City of Chaves, north Portugal

AIRVŪZ STAFF NOTE :

Check out this excellent drone video of a historic town in northern Portugal, compliments of AirVuz contributor EL Gomez.   The town of Chaves lies just a few mi./km south of Portugal's northern border with Spain.  Settled since Paleothic times, Chaves came to occupy a position of regional prominence during Roman times due to its location relative to three important roads.  It subsequently played a significant role in the bloody struggles between Christianity and Islam and later between the nation-states of Spain and Portugal.
