The Legend of the Lady Who Passed By, in Vila Verde, Braga, tells the story of Joana, who kissed a stream that turned into a river out of love. At night, while her father was sleeping, Joana went downstairs and came across a river! The girl asked the river to show herself in the form of a man, which the river agreed to. Joana's father appeared, and seeing his daughter with a boy, he was beside himself and took her away. The people say that laments with a man's voice could be heard coming from the sides of the river. "Did you pass by here? Did you? Did you pass?" The place became known as Passô and the river was called Homem.
