At the outer limits of Western Europe, with 530 miles (850 km) of Atlantic coast, Portugal has an independent spirit and an ancient and well-established culture. You can start with the territory, with landscapes ranging from endless beaches to the rugged mountains of the Serra da Estrela. Then there are the majestic monuments that recall the past of one of the oldest nations in Europe, which proudly includes 25 UNESCO World Heritage Sites. Cities like Lisbon and Porto welcome tourists with their historic districts and streets embellished with facades covered with azulejos; visit during the day or night, when the lively nightlife comes alive and you can let yourself be carried away by the notes of Fado, sipping fine Portuguese wines. Portugal offers the visitor a range of activities and attractions without equal: from surfing for beginners and star players, to challenging golf courses; from hiking or biking in the parks and natural reserves, to the faith paths of the Portuguese Way of Santiago and the Fatima Ways.
