1. During the Roman era, known as Liberalitas Julia, Évora was a prominent city in the Lusitania province. The magnificent Roman Temple, also known as the Temple of Diana, is a well-preserved structure from the 1st century AD and stands as a symbol of the city's Roman heritage. Évora flourished during the Middle Ages, becoming a major religious and educational center. Many of its most famous buildings, including the Cathedral and the University, date from this period. We will visit the 13th-century Cathedral, a striking example of Gothic architecture, and the intriguing Bones Chapel, a poignant reminder of human fragility. As we walk through the city, you'll marvel at how Évora seamlessly blends its ancient heritage with the lively atmosphere of university life.

About Lisbonne

Lisbonne dévale ses collines jusqu'à l'estuaire du Tage : façades d'azulejos, tramways jaunes bringuebalants, miradouros et dîners tardifs sans hâte.

Les vieux quartiers concentrent l'essentiel du charme. L'enchevêtrement de ruelles de l'Alfama grimpe vers le château Saint-Georges et résonne de fado le soir, la grille ordonnée de la Baixa descend jusqu'à la vaste place du Commerce, au bord du fleuve, et le Bairro Alto et le Chiado mêlent librairies et cafés le jour, bars la nuit. Des miradouros comme Santa Luzia et Senhora do Monte encadrent les toits rouges et l'eau scintillante.
