Our Specific Page About Passa Quatro
My Commentary: That was the second time I went to Passa Quatro and the first time to spend the night. The ambience is very good, a very calm place where you can walk at the central area, no needing a car. The options of restaurants are good and the place is not dangerous. What got my attention is a program I learned about in which the citizens cooperates with the police in order to make the town a safer places and all the houses which agreed to the program have a sign on their wall possible to see from outside. Although it's a calm place, it's not boring at all if you check places to go and make a good program (as it's possible to see by the pictures below).
