What to expect
Evora
We start the day visiting a cork factory where we will see all the processes from harvesting from the tree to the final product.
The Roman Temple of Évora dates from the 1st century AD, it was located on the highest part of the Acropolis, today the historic center of the city of Évora, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. This temple symbolized the religious and political power of the city.
The Capela dos Ossos was built in the 17th century, following a model then in vogue, with the intention of provoking reflection on the transience of human life and the consequent commitment to a permanent Christian experience through the image. Both the walls and the pillars are covered with a few thousand bones and skulls, from the burial spaces connected to the convent. The frescoes that decorate the vaulted ceiling, dating from 1810, present a variety of symbols illustrated by biblical passages and others with the instruments of the Passion of Christ. At the exit of the chapel, on the opposite wall, a tile panel, by the architect Siza Vieira, contrasts the miracle of life with the allusion of death.
The Basilica Sé de Nossa Senhora da Assunção, better known as Sé Catedral de Évora or simply Sé de Évora, is located in Largo Marquês de Marialva. Although begun in 1186 and consecrated in 1204, this granite cathedral was only completed in 1250. It is a monument marked by the transition from Romanesque to Gothic style, marked by three majestic naves.
After an intense morning of visits, nothing like making a stop and enjoying a magnificent meal, we will have 3 unforgettable restaurants in the plans... it's hard to choose.
Portuguese wines are among the best in the world and Évora is one of the places where we can taste what is best made in Portugal, this is a journey through the aromas and tastes of different grape varieties and stages...from white to red, tasting wines Portuguese is an unmissable adventure.
