Within its walls, the town contains barracks and other military buildings as well as churches and monasteries. While Elvas contains remains dating back to the 10th century A.D., its fortification began when Portugal regained independence in 1640. The fortifications designed by Dutch Jesuit Padre João Piscásio Cosmander represent the best surviving example of the Dutch school of fortifications anywhere. The site also contains the Amoreira Aqueduct, built to enable the stronghold to withstand lengthy sieges. One of 26 New World Heritage Sites added in 2012!… see moresee less

Great views and photo ops up here. worth it for sure.

this used to be the summer residence of the Royal Family. If you love beautiful stucco art, this is the place to see it!

One of my favorite sites in Portugal. We rented electric bikes and rode them all around the hills. The were supposed to help us get up the hills, but for those of that were heavier it ended up being a serious workout.

Great North African Food - Lots of vegetarian options. its in an old temple (the neighborhood is also very cute, its a little off the beaten path).

Loved this place..especially the canal cruise

take both the bus and boat tour!

wonderful

heaven

such an incredible mosque!

Definitely want to go there!

Blue Mosque is unique in that it has six minarets.

This rock is known as "The Anvil" and the island from which is juts out is known as being a thriving artists colony, although that's somewhat unofficial. It's pretty easy to see why artists would choose this spot to make their homes.

If you can pronounce this city you are a travel (or linguist) pro. Just outside of Tangier the city is truly known for the color of blue on the buildings & incidentally, for their terrific staple of goat cheese.

I loved this museum. It is full of incredible art & inspiring quotes from Van Gogh throughout the building... Pretty sure I still have them in a notebook somewhere. If you go, get there early and you'll be glad once you see the line of people waiting to get in. One of my favorite museums ever.

When you actually see the canvases up close and personal, you can see the thick swirls of paint. the ridges from his brush strokes, the layers of color.
