Cerâmicas na Linha
Open Details
After having breakfast at the hotel and leaving your room, stop by another noteworthy shop before you leave town.
What's so unusual about a ceramic cookware shop? Firstly, it is a wonderful gift to family and friends – handmade Portuguese ceramics, covered with unique patterns and glaze. Secondly, this shop offers to buy ceramics not by the piece, but by the weight. For a kilo you pay from 4 to 7 euros. There are, of course, other prices, but the key price policy here is very attractive, isn't it?

Chapel of Bones (Évora)
Landmark

One of the most famous monuments of Evora, the Chapel of the Bones, was built by one of the Franciscan monks as a reminder to brothers and other people that life on earth is fleeting. A small, gloomy chapel is located next to the entrance to the Church of St. Francis.
Please, note, that if you are travelling in summer, the last admission to the chapel is at 18:30. If you are travelling in winter, the last admission to the chapel is at 17:00 (so, probably, you should skip checking in to the hotel to visit the chapel).
