Aljezur is situated in
the Natural Park. It is a very quiet place where you can appriciate
nature, and the wonderful beaches with the best references, famous
around the world. From May till September
the temperature is pleasant and it doesn´t rain much. During the
winter month the earth recovers from the dry summer and the flora
shines in all its diversity and colour splendor. In the spring the beauty of
almond-trees is at its height, they are called the Algarve snow.
This region is in the middle of the Natural Park; it is a protected
area where beaches are clean, the air is pure and where you can find
animals and plants that almost don´t exist in Europe. This village is from the
Xth century and has an Arab origin. There you can admire the
octagonal castle with two towers and a cistern, but it was very
damaged by the earthquake in 1755. In Aljezur you can make
your daily shops and you have many services like: market, banks,
doctors, bars, and a trade fair once a month. This area is specially
indicated to rest and to recover strengths. Discover and enjoy the
intact nature, the hospitality and the marvellous regional food. If
you want discos and fun you can find it in Lagos a few km away. |
