Portugal is a beautiful and laid-back country in southwestern Europe. Its capital, Lisbon, is believed to be the setting for the story of Odysseus and Calypso in Greek mythology. In Lisbon, you will find the Belém Tower and the Church of Sao Roque, which are an ode to the city’s history. Travel to The Algarve, which boasts more than 200 km (124.3 mi) of coastline, for fantastic beaches and luxurious resorts.
