Tavira - Eastern Algarve - Portugal

Tavira Is the Algarve's pearl. It lies on either side of a tidal river and has a castle and the buildings have interesting "treasure" roofs modelled after the spices brought from the East. Alongside the river are lovely gardens with a bandstand in the middle, here on a summers evening you may see local folk-dancing and singing. Plenty of restaurants and pavement cafes also the old market has been redeveloped into cafés and restaurants. There is always a pleasant atmosphere here. .Over the ‘Roman’ bridge across the river there is a maze of little cobble streets with lots more restaurants with tables set out in the open air.
