OFF THE TRAIL: EVORA, PORTUGAL

Evora is an absolute gem in the heart of Portugal. The whole old city is a World Heritage Site and open air museum according to UNESCO.

It’s just a short train ride from Lisbon. You can go on an early train and take the last one home but trust me, that won’t be enough time to explore this delightful city and all its nooks and historical crannies. Stay for a weekend. That’s what we did.

Like much of Europe, there’s so much history in a small area from Neolithic to the Romans, to the Catholics – Evora has it all. And great places to eat, sleep, shop, and see!
