Purple Flowers

Alentejo

In the Alentejo, colours shift with the seasons.

Though the landscape may seem serene, no two days are ever the same. Vivid hues emerge from the earth, inviting long walks or cycling adventures. Identifying native flora can turn into a fun, family-friendly game, bringing nature and discovery together.
