PORTUGAL
Romans and Moors, Berbers, Vandals and Visigoths. Through the
times, many cultures have conquered their share of the rich
Iberian Peninsula. Like rings on a tree, each culture has left its
indelible marks, leaving behind iconic architecture, historic sites
and traditions, art and music.
Explore the maze of winding alleys in search of the haunting
lament of the fado guitar. Keeping the old houses cool under
the southern sun, the intricately patterned azulejo tiles adorn
churches and palaces, restaurants and railway stations. Restore
your soul over a glass of port and a plate of grilled sardines.
