ALGARVE HISTORY & PEOPLEAN OLD SOUL IN A NEW WORLD. A UNIQUE WAY TO DO, FEEL AND LIVE

World Heritage and Influences from other Worlds. In the heart of the Old World, where for centuries Barbarians, Romans and Moorish have lived, Algarve carries a unique architectural and cultural legacy and was the stage where the Discoveries for the New World started..... In Algarve there is a unique way to do, feel and live.

Travel back in Time, to the past is easy in Algarve, as all this history of civilizations can be seen across the region in an eclectic architecture, several Monuments, Roman Ruins, Medieval Old City Walls, Churches, Chapels, Castles, Fortress and Museums. From the Age of the Discoveries, Sagres, today a World Heritage Centre & Lagos are a testament to Portuguese maritime expansion and marks Europe's most south-western corner which have inspired the 15th Century Portuguese explorers to set sail into the unknown, redefining the world’s map and minds.

People in Algarve. Most of all, it is our special history with people that makes Algarvian People so special too. Having dealt with different civilisations for so many centuries, what you’ll find in Algarve is some of the friendliest People in the world, with an extraordinary hospitality, tolerant and relaxed attitude to visitors and arms wide open to other cultures.

Our Identity. Hand in hand with the unparalleled friendliness of the people, this land of good Wine & mystic Fado (Portuguese most traditional music genre, classified as UNESCO’s World’s Heritage Cultural Patrimony) carries a deeper historical legacy which can be experienced through Algarve’s rich folk heritage, with old customs & art crafts becoming living traditions, celebrations and the flavours of a unique regional cuisine imbedded in the healthy Mediterranean Diet (classified as World Heritage by Unesco).
