EXPLORE ALENTEJO WITH MY BOOKPACK
My Bookpack focuses on putting Portugal on the travel map and challenges people to take a detour from the most explored routes and wander off the beaten path. We are releasing a series of episodes broadcasting the different regions of Portugal in which you’ll get to see what each one of them has to offer. All shots are done by us when we are on the road exploring routes and meeting new places.
Thanks to our local partners for participating and showcasing the richness and beauty of our country.
A friend once told us “Alentejo almost sums up Portugal, as it has the beach, the wine and good food”. We agree, but there’s even more to it. A long history that dates back to pre-historic times, beautiful arts & crafts and really welcoming people. Being the country’s biggest region, exploring it requires time and Alentejo really invites you to slow down the pace.

Alandroal was founded in 1298 by D. Lourenço Afonso, Master of Avis, and elevated to the category of town in 1486, by a letter of Foral attributed by D. João II. To the municipality of Alandroal were annexed during century XIX, the territories of the old municipalities of Terena and Juromenha. The village of Vila Real (Villareal), a village on the Alqueva river, belonging to Olivença (under the Spanish administration) was a town of the old town hall of Juromenha.
