Hello! I'm Yani, an architecture student in Évora and passionate about its living history. I love strolling among ancient columns and medieval walls, imagining how they were built and the stories they hold. On my tour, we'll walk together from the imposing Aqueduct to the centuries-old stones of the Temple of Diana, pausing at every architectural detail and discovering the stories they hide. I invite you to immerse yourself in the past as we admire the beauty of Évora, step by step.

Tour description

I'm Yani, an architecture student, and I'm inviting you on a unique tour: a route where history blends with legends, architecture, and small details that often go unnoticed.

Our tour begins with a strong start in front of the Roman Temple , a silent symbol of imperial power. Then we'll climb to the Cathedral of Évora , a granite cathedral that resembles a medieval fortress.

We continue along Rua 5 de Outubro , where the facades tell centuries of history and the tiles still retain the color of the past. And we arrive at the vibrant Praça do Giraldo , where once there were Inquisition bonfires… and today there are cafes and smiles. There I will tell you stories of bravery, rebellion, and a fearless knight: Geraldo.

Afterwards, we step away from the hustle and bustle to discover the Igreja da Graça . And finally, I'll take you to a place that will leave no one indifferent: the Igreja de São Francisco , where the bones speak without saying a word.

A tour full of anecdotes, surprises, and new perspectives on an ancient city.

✨ Book and let yourself go: Évora has a lot to tell you. I'll just help you listen.
