This little country is loaded with superb beaches, moderate surf, amazing castles, churches and monasteries, and has unique architectural art in the shape of Manueline decor and azulejos tiling. Portugal also holds many of the world UNESCO World heritages sites. Visit Portugals capital city Lisbon or some other popular towns like Faro, Fatima and Porto.
