A Visit to Evora,Portugal
 
My wife and I will be visiting Portugal in Feb.-March for the fourth time and while there we would like to visit Evora for a few days.<BR>In previous years we have found that a lot of places are closed for the season at this time of the year.<BR>Has anyone visited there at this time of year,are most of the historic sights open,is it worth the visit and any good places to stay.<BR>Hope someone can help in this matter.

Raymond, you will have no problems in Evora, everything is opened because many people visit it all year long. I recommend that you stay at the Pousada de Loios. It's lovely. Have a nice trip.

Evora is a lovely town with lots of places to stay. (Very inexpensive).<BR>Do visit the Chapel of the Bones--to the right of the church as you come into the old town. (we had to hunt for it).<BR><BR>Enjoy!

Evora is a real treat. The Roman walls and plaza make it worthwhile. We stayed in a hotel outside the wall which was comfortable and inexpensive, but the posada is fabulous. Don't get caught on the many one way streets - driving in the pedestrian square is embassasing! The nearby Reguengos winery is great.
