A bit of history you'll discover on your day trip to Portugal from Seville
The border region between Spain and Portugal, marked by the proximity to the Guadiana River, has a rich history dating back centuries. During the Roman era, it was part of the province of Lusitania, leaving a mark on the architecture and the Roman road network. With the arrival of Muslims in the 8th century, the area experienced Islamic influence during the caliphate of Cordoba.
The Christian Reconquest in the 13th century led to the conquest of cities like Tavira. In the Age of Discoveries, the region, strategically located near the sea and the river, played a significant role. In modern times, the area was the stage for conflicts such as the Napoleonic wars and the Spanish Civil War.
Today, the region is known for its rural charm, beautiful beaches, and a unique fusion of cultural influences.
