Alentejo, meaning 'beyond the Tagus River', is a beautiful agricultural region, remarkable for its wide horizons, filled with golden hills. As the warmest weathered region in Portugal, its inhabitants are known for their slow-paced, easy-going lifestyle, that is in great harmony with the Alentejo's calm-inducing topography. So, if you are there, do like the Alentejanos, and do it slowly.

Cities

Évora and Beja, the historic region capitals, are both very worth a visit.

Do

• The west coast is one of the most beautiful beach zones, that has survived without the savage tourism industry that disfigured the Algarve. Be sure to visit Vila Nova de Mil-Fontes or one of the little towns around.

• In the summer (beg july), if you are a rock fan, try to catch the Sudoeste Rock Festival, near Zambujeira.

Drink

Wines from the Alentejo region are very popular among the Portuguese people, so take the chance to know them!
