Evora - This tour of ‘c9vora, Esporão winery and Monsaraz will be a journey of intense sensations through the Alentejo, the most extensive region in Portugal and also the most sparsely populated. The beauty of its natural landscape, the greatness of its monumental heritage and the richness of its gastronomy and wines invite us to an exciting discovery.
We will start the tour in the region’s capital, ‘c9vora, one of the most emblematic cities in Portugal, reflecting the perfect combination between its unique historical heritage and its cosmopolitan and friendly side. It is undoubtedly one of the richest and most different cities in the country, whose heritage spans different eras, and its historical centre was awarded as world heritage by UNESCO. Testimonies of its Roman occupation are still preserved today and the remains of its Arab past are clearly visible in its popular architecture and gastronomy. The formation of the nationality led to the construction of several convents, where the most famous local pastries were created, and later, in the XV and XVI centuries, during the maritime discoveries, it was the residence of the kings and centre of the vast Portuguese empire. - Templo Romano de Evora (Templo de Diana) - During this tour of ‘c9vora, you will discover with us its main attractions, namely its splendid Roman Temple, the city’s brand image, built in the middle of the I century, one of the best preserved in the Iberian Peninsula;
- Cathedral of Evora (Se Catedral de Evora) - Its amazing Cathedral, dating from the end of the XII century, which stands out as the largest medieval cathedral in the country;
- Evora - The ancient University of ‘c9vora, founded in 1559, the second university created in Portugal, after the foundation of the University of Coimbra;
- Praca do Giraldo - The charming Giraldo Square, the main square in ‘c9vora, which honours its conqueror, Geraldo the fearless, who took the city from the Arabs in 1165;
-
Capela dos Ossos - And the incredible Bones’ Chapel, a mandatory stop on this tour, which is part of the Royal Church of St. Francis, whose walls and ceilings are covered with bones from the city’s cemeteries.
The charming city of ‘c9vora will blow you away.
