Évora is a historic city in southern Portugal, renowned for its well-preserved Roman temple, medieval walls, and whitewashed houses. As a UNESCO World Heritage Site, it offers a rich blend of Roman, Moorish, and Portuguese architecture. The city’s charming streets, ancient cathedral, and the eerie Chapel of Bones make it a cultural gem in the Alentejo region.

Due the heat we only stopped for more refill our water bottles. I think I drank more than 3,5 liters of water today .

At the very end, the four of us had some real troubles navigating. There was some confusion around the cycle paths.

The battery on my navigation went empty and that wasn’t really helping the situation.
