Évora is a beautiful city in Portugal with archeological findings dating back to 4,000 BC. With a well-preserved UNESCO-listed town center, some beautiful churches and plenty of historical flavor, it is one of the best places to visit during your trip to Portugal. Here are five reasons not to miss Évora.
1. Roman Ruins
Templo Romano is the best-preserved Roman temple in Portugal. It dates
from 2AD and 14 ornate Corinthian columns still stand on a marble
platform from which you can look across the rooftops of UNESCO protected
Évora. Termas Romanos, the Roman Baths that date from 1AD lie beneath
the town hall (Camara Municipal) and during office hours you can wander
in and see the huge circular steam bath.
