Évora was declared in 1986 by the UNESCO a World Heritage Site.
More than an enchanting walled city, Évora has an unique atmosphere in the streets of the old town, filled with restaurants and handicraft shops, and historical monuments like the ruins of the roman temple.
Of turistic interest is also the Diana's Temple, and the 15th-century Convent of Lóios (now a luxurious pousada, a state inn) together with houses exhibiting bright white arcades and balconies of wrought iron. In spite of its historical interest, the fact of being an university city brings new life to it. Click here to see more about the beautiful city of Évora.
