What to know about Portugal

Portugal is a sun-drenched country on the western edge of Europe, where Atlantic beaches meet medieval castles, world-class wine regions, and cities steeped in maritime history. From the tiled streets of Lisbon to the Douro Valley vineyards and the Algarve's golden cliffs, Portugal offers exceptional value, warm hospitality, and a cultural richness that punches far above its size.
