Terena - Évora District by Caeiro

Terena is a beautiful historic village, wich is part of the Alandroal Municipality and Evora District (Alentejo – Portugal).

Terena, also known as São Pedro or São Pedro de Terena, is a lovely small village located in the vast Alentejo region, in an area of quietness and peace of mind, close to the river and lagoon of Lucifécit Dam, and nearby the border with Spain

During the Middle Age, this village had an important defensive role, as its Castle still proves, integrating the Guadiana river defensive line.

The peaceful streets of Terena are characterized by its lovely typical Alentejo’s architecture, with small rural houses, with coloured brand, and proud on its heritage, as it is visible in the ancient Castle, on the Nossa Senhora da Boa Nova Sanctuary, on the Mother Church of São Pedro, which foundation was somewhere before the 14th century, or the lovely 16th century Misericórdia Church, the 17th century Santo António Chapel.

Also quite interesting, is the village’s Pillory from the 16th century, the Watch tower, the ruins of the fortified Endovélico settlement and its sanctuary, and also the ruins of the Castelo Velho hill fort.

Besides all this wonderful heritage, the cultural and popular festivities are also very cherished, like the Nossa Senhora da Boa Nova Festivities, that take place every Easter’s Sunday and Monday, with a very famous Procession. Also, on the first Sunday of each month, in the village park, an interesting Antiques Fair is held.

Good Destination by Hengest

Algarve is awesome, last time I went I was 17. I love Portuguese women, I sat next to a model on the plane leaving Faro. So good!

Lisbon by Gonçalo Gomes

I’ve been born in Lisbon and to be quite frank, I know not a lot about it and not a lot about the whole Portugal as well. I’d recommend visiting Parque das Nações, Cascais, Oeiras, Saldanha, Marquês de Pombal, Rossio and etc.

Untitled by Karina_71

Loved Portugal, which I visited the same year I did live in Germany for 11 months (1999)… the only consideration I have is that during the summer months it’s way too hot and humid, especially Lisbon… the streets can be quite smelly and the nights very sultry in your room if you don’t have AC!

I loved it in Faro, though… but that’s next to the ocean so it’s a whole different story!
