Visit Loulé

The evocative battlements of a medieval castle. The maze of narrow, whitewashed streets where artisans maintain old traditions. The vertical lines of the minaret of an ancient mosque. The sweeping horizons of a venerated sanctuary atop a hill. Aspects of Loulé, a city of contrasts and charms.
