We drove east from Lisbon and stopped at the quaint, charming town of Évora, in the Alentejo, about 60 kms (40 mi.) from the Spanish border. It's been around for a while, as this 1st century Roman Temple will attest. And it's a very popular spot in the winter months as it never gets very cold. After the massive earthquake that destroyed most of Lisbon in 1755, much of government and ecclesiastical life moved here for a while. |
