Évora: Rest Day

August 24, 2015

Ruth:

We now have only a few more days before we return to Lisbon and are spending two of these in Évora. The historic center of Évora is a listed Unesco site. Inhabited  continuously by the Iberian Celts, Romans, Moors, and Christians, Évora is a tightly packed medieval city full of treasures. We spent much of today just walking through the tiny streets exploring the quiet pretty neighbourhoods. One of our favorites is an area where houses have been built into the arches of an early 16th century aqueduct. A perfect place for two tired cyclist to have a rest day.
