Mertola Portugal

The town of Mértola, on the banks of the Guadiana River, is one of the most welcoming of Alentejo. Visitors find in Mértola, a small village of white houses dotted illuminating the rugged landscape around it. For more than 500 years Christians and Arabs lived together in this place so it is not surprising that it is, today, one of the Arab Lusa places throughout the region. Although the Muslim heritage is dominant in Mértola, not in vain is remembered each year in the Islamic Festival Mértola and its gastronomy, for this Portuguese town of steep streets also passed the Phoenicians, Romans and Visigoths.
