Portugal has been a favorite with travelers for many decades and it really is not surprising. The country owns a wealth of history and culture as well as fantastic countryside and beaches. Located on the west coast of mainland Europe, it is bordered by the country of Spain. The Azores and Madeira are also part of Portugal.
The country’s mainland is made up of the Norte region of the north and then the country is split into the southern regions of the Algarve and Alentejo. The Norte region is well known for its cultural and historical significance. The Algarve is separated from the Alentejo by a mountain range and is slightly warmer than the northern regions.
The Algarve is a hugely popular tourist destination and is the southernmost region of Portugal. The population of the region actually doubles in the high tourist season due to the sheer volume of travelers seeking out the Algarve sun and beaches. The city of Faro is a popular destination and the region’s airport makes for an ideal location. As well as its popularity as a holiday destination, the Algarve is also well known for its produces such as figs, almonds and oranges.
The Alentejo region is the south central region of Portugal and has several main cities – Evora, Beja and Sines. This area is commonly known as the ‘bread basket’ of Portugal due to its agricultural nature. Many products are famed for originating in this region such as cheese, wine, smoked hams and sausages.
Many on holiday in this beautiful country fall in love with the Portuguese cuisine, which has a diverse range. Typical dishes are often relished with some local wine grown in the region. The Roman Empire even associated their god of wine Bacchus with Portugal. Several regions around Portugal are internationally recognized as prime wine territories and a trip to region will show you many of the lush vineyards that created the famed brands.
