The Historic Centre of Évora, Alentejo’s largest city, is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Over 20 centuries’ worth of history shapes its streets, meaning this city is full of dazzling cultural sites. We recommend the Roman baths, cathedral, and the chilling Chapel of Bones for starters. After you’ve walked up an appetite, relax with a drink in the central square. Or visit one of the capital’s bakeries to sample some Pão Alentejano (Alentejo bread). Recognisable by its rustic rounded shape, the bread’s acidic flavour complements local cheese and olive oil perfectly.
