Faro, Portugal
| Faro is the capital and administrative center of the Algarve region of Portugal. An attractive town with many points of interest, it is also the kick-
off point for the numerous resorts for which the Algarve is famous. Faro has a few Moorish and Roman ruins dating from around the 13th century, but the majority of its attractive older buildings date from the second half of the 18th century, after an earthquake in 1755 devastated the town. As well as its architectural beauty, Faro offers a wealth of restaurants and cafes, fine beaches and a beautiful Italianate theatre hosting a full programme of drama, music and dance. And the area is paradise for golfers with around 19 courses on the coastal stretch between Faro and Albufeira. |
