(...) To the east of
Faro stretches the Ria Formosa, a nature reserve with a peaceful
bird sanctuary. The beaches along this part of the coast
are flatter, wider and more deserted. Olhão is a 17th
Century town built in Moorish style and known for its lively
indoor fish market. Further east is one of the Algarve’s
most elegant towns: Tavira. With its pastel-coloured houses reflected in
the gliding river, minature domes, ornate belltowers, low
bridges and twisting streets, Tavira
has a charming, almost oriental flavour. For a wealth of
sports, night-life, beautiful scenery and glorious sunshine
throughout the year, the Algarve cannot be beaten.(...) |

Tavira is a lovely old town which
stands on either side of the river Giláo. Its two halves are
connected by a seven-arched Roman bridge. A small, medieval
castle on a low hill in the center of the town presides over
all. Next to the castle is the Church of Santa Maria do Castelo,
which contains the tomb of the town´s liberator during the 13th
century Christian reconquest, Dom Paio Peres Correia.(...) |
