Trancoso
Shopping
After
the beach or a game of golf, Trancoso offers up a wonderful
excursion for the serious or less serious shopper. Most
of the shops in Trancoso are concentrated around the central
square, O Quadrado. The area is filled with local arts
and crafts and small outlets representing some of the
finest fashion accessories in Brazil. Walk in to see and
enjoy the many shops, some with surprising gardens or
a little coffee bar in the back. Despite many new stores
and recent reforms, the Quadrado has continued to retain
its traditional, rustic, Trancoso style.
At
night O Quadrado is lit by candlelight and the multi colored
facades offer a magical backdrop to an evening of dining
and shopping - or just an evening walk under the bright
moonlight or the incredible stars. Many shopkeepers only
open up during the afternoon, so don´t leave your
shopping for the last morning.
