Évora is a historic city located in Alentejo, southern Portugal, known for its rich cultural and architectural heritage. Founded by the Romans and later developed during the medieval and Renaissance periods, Évora is famous for its well-preserved historic centre, which has been classified as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Among the city's landmarks are the Roman Temple of Évora and Évora Cathedral, an impressive example of Gothic and Renaissance architecture. A 17th-century tradition associated the temple with Diana, but it was likely dedicated to the Roman imperial cult.

The city is also known for the Capela dos Ossos, a macabre chapel decorated with human bones, which offers a unique perspective on local history. Évora is surrounded by medieval walls and its cobbled streets are lined with historic buildings and charming squares. In addition to its historical importance, Évora is a vibrant cultural centre, with festivals, museums and a rich regional gastronomy.
