	> silves
	Built by the Almoravid Arabs in the 11th century, the imposing and admirable Silves Castle is today a popular place for leisure and recreation, although it still serves as a distinct reminder of the grandeur of the art of the Muslims, reflecting the splendour attained by the Islamic civilisation in the Algarve.

	> loulé
	This place is a rural administrative and active market town with some remains of a castle dating back to the 12th Century. The Arab castle has been virtually destroyed leaving some walls still standing that are now surrounded by modern buildings. Like most other towns in the Algarve, most of the older potentially interesting buildings have been destroyed in the earthquake that occurred in 1755. Within the remaining walls is a museum with an explanation of what was in the past the grandeur of the castle.

	> aljezur
	From Aljezur tourists can explore the wonderful beaches of the Algarve´s west coast: bathed by the Atlantic, they are often wild and deserted in contrast to the warmer ones of the south. Aljezur is small and tranquil, it is overlooked by a Moorish castle from the 10th century. Aljezur is divided into two parts and lies in a fertile valley with a patchwork of fields where various crops are cultivated.

	> portimão
	An extense stretch of sand sheltered by cliffs, the Praia da Rocha (Rock Beach) is known internationally and has for long been Portimão´s "visiting card". Inviting the visitor to sun and sea-baths, the sweeping bay offers excellent conditions for water sports and boat-rides.
