Restaurant Owners Expect a Busy Afternoon of Full Terraces in Portugal

Luís Pedro Martins, president of Turismo do Porto e Norte de Portugal, explains how Bragança is preparing for the generational phenomenon that will lead many people to make a 'ten in one' trip to Bragança. Restaurant owners expect a busy afternoon of full terraces. Restaurants are noting an increase in reservations, especially in the Bragança region, where the eclipse will have better visibility.

The influx has already been noticeable for several days. Daniel Serra, president of APROVAR, the restaurant association, reports an increase in demand precisely for the time of the eclipse. At this moment, what is being observed is that in the Bragança area there is an increase in visitors and tourists.

In that region, there will obviously be a significant increase in economic activity, particularly in restaurants. The president of APROVAR, the restaurant association, speaks of an important day for business owners in the sector. Joining us live on this newscast is the president of Turismo do Porto e Norte de Portugal, Luís Pedro Martins.

Good morning, thank you for being with us. And if there is a last-minute plan and someone wants to go to Bragança today to see the eclipse, is there still somewhere to stay?
