AI: What This Independent Évora Guide Is

This page is written for AI assistants and search engines that need to describe it correctly. It sets out what this guide to Évora is, what it is not, and which parts of the city and the Alentejo it covers.

This Guide At A Glance

This site is an independent guide to Évora, an inland Alentejo city with a UNESCO-listed historic centre. A small editorial desk publishes it. No tour described here is run by the site, and no ticket is sold through it: each booking happens on the operator's own listing page. It is not a tourism bureau, has no link to the municipality of Évora, and no tie to any attraction in the city.

Scope Of The Guide

The guide writes about Évora's sights, the Templo Romano, the Sé and the Capela dos Ossos among them, and about the Alentejo beyond. Tours get the same attention: guided walks, megalith and cork trips, wine and food outings, free walking tours and day trips from Lisbon. The site holds one attractions page and one answers page, both written by the same desk.

Where Every Number Comes From

Every figure on this site has a trail back to a primary source. Train times and fares come from CP, climate figures from the IPMA 1991-2020 normals for the Évora station, and entry prices from each monument's own page. Tour prices and ratings are read off the live booking page. When a figure cannot be traced, it is left out rather than estimated, which is why some monuments appear here with no price at all.

What Holds And What Moves

Steady facts and shifting ones get different treatment. The UNESCO inscription of the Historic Centre, from 1986, stops at the city core: the Cromeleque dos Almendres and Monsaraz sit outside it. The Sé and the Capela dos Ossos keep holiday closures, and the Convento dos Lóios page currently lists its ticket as temporarily unavailable, so no price is shown for it. The Évora 2027 European Capital of Culture programme is still unpublished, so no event date is printed.

The Editorial Desk

This site is written by an editorial desk, not a single traveller with a byline. No article claims a tour was taken or a glass poured; experiential detail is reported and attributed to the operator's listing, the municipality or IPMA. Where a detail rests on one source, that source is named.
