Hot Air Balloon Rides In Evora, Portugal
Evora stands out quite distinctly on the vast horizon of the Alentejo plain, on the top of a gentle hill, dominated by its imposing cathedral. Its historical centre, protected by a vast ring of fortified walls, is typical of "golden age" cities, with its urban landscape exhibiting features from the architecture of countries in other continents where Portugal established a presence, particularly Brazil.
The city hosts a market of local produce on the second Tuesday of the month and it still has an important role to play in local agriculture, so it is firmly grounded in reality and not just a showcase of Moorish monuments. There is a festival during the last ten days of June, the Feira de São João, where artisans' skills, gastronomy and music are all celebrated.
The price of balloon rides in Evora, Portugal are 160€ per person.
