If you’ve scrolled through Instagram within the last year or so, then you already know that Portugal is the place to go. It has turned up on more must-visit lists lately than nearly anywhere else.
And no wonder the sun-soaked,western sliver of southern Europe has much to offer rich culture,beautiful architecture, and a dazzling culinary scene.(Not to mention the well-styled hotels that are the stuff of social media dreams.)
While scores of travelers are drawn to the vibrant cities of Lisbon and Porto,would-be visitors should also look to the south namely,the Algarve region for an under the radar coastal retreat that’s full of authentic Portuguese pleasures.
