Known as the white city for its whitewashed houses strewn along the winding streets, Tangier is today a city undergoing significant development and modernization.
On the western Algarve, Portimão is a small port with a bustling historic center. Once a well-known fishing port, now transformed into a breath-taking promenade with shops selling traditional lace, ceramics, and leather goods, and fantastic restaurants.
