The Alentejo Is The New Region To Go To In Portugal

There’s a saying in the Alentejo, the south central Portuguese region described as the heartland of the country, that life proceeds at the pace of the wind. But no one minds the leisurely pace; in fact, many, including expats, come here for that very reason, drawn also to the varying, compelling scenery—wheat fields, miles of nearly deserted white beaches on the western coast, walled hilltop towns with castles and Roman ruins, hills dotted with cork trees, olive trees and vineyards.

What is your excuse to miss this breathtaking beauty?
