- Sistelo is also famous for its 'SOCALCOS', which arose from the need to increase the agricultural area and counteract the slopes.

Casa recuperada com muito gosto, muito cuidada, e com tudo o que se pode desejar e mais para uns dias bem passados! A paisaigem e a simpatia de toda a gente da aldeia são uma mais valia, Tornou-se dificil pensar que a avó não é nossa, tál foi a hospitalidade com que nos recebeu. Recomendo vivamente e por nós até uma próxima!
