The Bone-Chilling Chapel of Bones

First stop: the Capela dos Ossos, or Chapel of Bones. I know, I know, it sounds a bit creepy, but hear me out! This 16th-century chapel is like nothing you've ever seen before. The walls and pillars are decorated with human bones and skulls from over 5,000 monks. It's a stark reminder of our mortality, but also weirdly beautiful in its own macabre way. Our guide will fill you in on all the spooky details and the philosophy behind this unique place. Just don't forget to snap a pic - your Instagram followers won't believe their eyes!

The Magnificent Évora Cathedral

Next up, we've got the Évora Cathedral. This bad boy is the largest medieval cathedral in Portugal, and let me tell you, it's a sight to behold! Built in the 13th century, it's a mishmash of architectural styles that'll make your head spin (in a good way, of course). The best part? You can climb up to the roof for a breathtaking view of the city. Just be prepared for a bit of a workout - those stairs are no joke!

The Roman Temple of Évora

Now, let's take it way back - like, 2000 years back. The Roman Temple of Évora, also known as the Temple of Diana, is one of the best-preserved Roman structures on the Iberian Peninsula. It's smack dab in the middle of the city, and trust me, it's impossible to miss. Our guide will regale you with tales of ancient Roman life and the temple's fascinating history. Who knows, you might even feel like you've time-traveled!

The Royal Palace of Évora

Feeling fancy? Well, you're in luck because our next stop is fit for royalty! The Royal Palace of Évora, or Paço Real de Évora, was once home to Portuguese kings. Today, it houses the University of Évora, but don't let that fool you - it's still got that regal charm. Our guide will point out all the little details you might miss on your own, like the intricate Manueline windows and the gorgeous courtyard.

The Évora Museum

Last but definitely not least, we've got the Évora Museum. Now, I know what you're thinking - "Another museum?" But trust me, this one's different. Housed in the former Archbishop's Palace, it's chock-full of fascinating artifacts that tell the story of Évora and the surrounding region. From Roman sculptures to medieval art, there's something here for everyone. And the best part? Our guide knows all the juicy stories behind the exhibits!
