Evora
Church of St. Francis built in Gothic style.
Capela dos Ossos (Bone Chapel), lined with bones of the poor, with an entrance plaque that reads, "We bones that are here await yours."
Driving by Monsaraz where groves of cork oaks can be seen, with the stripped trunks in orange color.
Their version of Stonehenge, where marriageable girls would run around the central stone 3 times to ensure that their intended spouse would turn out to be tops. No, I didn't bother to run--so call me a cynic!
