My intention when visiting my land "of origin" was to pay a little visit to my family, I had not seen my cousins for a long time! the menu is varied but being a coastal area near the atlantic presents a variety of dishes with different types of fish! I went to visit a small restaurant that serves the best salmon in the city, making your vacations here is not expensive! you can order a special menu with "main course, appetizer, drink and dessert" for less than 10 euros! And it is for something that the Algarve region is one of the most sought after by English and Dutch tourists!🧆🍢🍲
Mi intencion al visitar mi tierra "de origen" fue hacer una pequeña visita a mi familia, tenia mucho tiempo sin ver a mis primos! el menu es variado pero al ser una area costera proxima del atlantico presenta una variedad de platos con distintos tipos de peces! fui a visitar un pequeño restaurante que sirve el mejor salmon de la ciudad, hacer tus vacaciones por aqui no es costoso! puedes pedir un menu especial con "plato fuerte, aperitivo, bebida y postre" en menos de 10 euros! y es por algo que la region de algarve es una de las mas cotizadas por turistas ingleses y holandeses!🥩🥩🍤

To get to Loule we must travel about 15 kilometers from Faro, which is the capital of the Algarve, there we will arrive at the hot city of Loule, I dare to say that if you were to write on the internet "the best beaches in Europe" some of this region could appear , and it makes sense because this area in summer is quite hot, tourists come with the intention of spending a vacation with a "summer" climate, the temperature easily reaches about 38 degrees, the water does not have the temperature of a tropical beach but unlike many countries it is hotter!😎😎
Para llegar a Loule debemos recorrer unos 15kilometros desde Faro que es la capital de algarve, alli llegaremos a la calurosa ciudad de Loule, me atrevo a afirmar que si llegases a escribir en internet "las mejores playas de europa" podria aparecerte alguna de esta region, y tiene sentido porque esta zona en verano es bastante caliente, los turistas vienen con la intencion de pasar unas vacaciones con un clima "de verano", facilmente la temperatura alcanza unos 38 grados, el agua no tiene la temperatura de una playa tropical pero a diferencia de muchos paises es mas caliente! 💆‍♀️💆‍♂️🏊‍♂️🚣‍♂️🏄‍♂️

Portugal despite being a small country has a great variety of ecosystems, we can visit "semi-tropical" islands up to about 2000 meters and stay in a hotel surrounded by snow! and algarve along with Faro have some nature reserves where "Ria formosa" stands out bordered by the Atlantic is personally the best beach in algarve! In addition to having a wide variety of water sports! there is no way for you and your family to get bored! If you are a nature lover, this is your best option. Several aquatic bird censuses are carried out here!🧭🤔👧🧑🧓

It was quite difficult for me to get information about this castle since it is quite small and simple! I think that among so many who visit this has to be the smallest! It is located in the center of the city of Loule and shares its space with a magnificent museum that allows you to take a tour of thousands of years ago to learn about all the cultures that inhabited the area! there is scientific evidence that the south of Portugal was inhabited since prehistory!🧠🕵️‍♂️📚
Me fue bastante dificil conseguir informacion sobre este castillo ya que es bastante pequeño y simple! creo que entre tantos que visite este tiene que ser el mas pequeño! esta ubicado en el centro de la ciudad de Loule y comparte su espacio con un magnifico museo que te permite hacer un recorrido por miles de años atras para aprender sobre todas las culturas que habitaron la zona! existen evidencias cientificas que el sur de Portugal fue habitado desde la prehistoria!🏰🚩👳‍♀️👳‍♂️

Access to the castle is not free but it is not expensive either! you pay 1.5 euros and you have access to the museum! let's say you take a one-hour tour of the "castle of loule" is privileged because it was built in one of the highest places in the city center so it gives you a nice 360 degree view of the entire city including the "Espiritu Convent Santo" which is a very visited religious construction! the castle had its origins in the 18th century it is not the oldest castle you will visit either but this is a true survivor as it was "almost" totally destroyed in the 17th century earthquake!😮🤩🎫
Acceder al castillo no es gratis pero tampoco es costoso! pagas 1,5euros y tienes acceso al museo! digamos que haces un recorrido de una hora el "castillo de loule" es priviegiado porque fue construido en uno de los sitios mas alto del centro de la ciudad asi que te obequia una linda vista de 360 grados hacia toda la ciudad incluyendo al "Convento Espiritu Santo" que es una construccion religiosa muy visitada! el castillo tuvo su origen en el siglo XVIII tampoco es el mas antiguo que visite pero este es un verdadero sobreviviente ya que "casi" fue destruido totalmente en el terremoto del siglo 17!👨‍💻👨‍🏫

The castle has an "Arabic" origin and belonged to the famous "Moorish" tribe, which are those of Arab origin, it is believed that precisely from the "Muslim" people, they were the ones who inhabited Portugal for centuries and marked the country's history by the great battles that arose during decades in dispute over territories! But before raising its walls, the region where the castle was built was inhabited by the Romans! In 1249 an event happens that will change the history of "Loule" and that is that King Alfonso together with the "order of Santiago" carried out a bloody fight to conquer the castle and at that point in history the city of Loule would be Portuguese. !😮😮
El castillo tiene un origen "arabico" y pertenecia a la famosa tribu "moros" que son aquellos de origen arabicas se cree que precisamente del pueblo "musulman", fueron ellos quienes habitaron portugal por siglos y marcaron la historia del pais por los grandes combates que surgieron durante decadas en disputa de territorios! pero antes de levantar sus murallas la region donde fue construida el castillo fue habitada por los romanos! en 1249 sucede un evento que cambiara la historia de "Loule" y es que el Rey Alfonso junto con la "orden de santiago" llevaron a cabo una lucha sangrienta para conquistar el castillo y en ese punto de la historia la ciudad de Loule seria portuguesa!🤴👳‍♂️💥💥

This is what I meant, paying less than two euros for this "priceless" view is a nice experience and you learn a lot about the history of Portugal in this small castle, from the 17th century the castle had no "defensive" function "so it had no military value! Later, when the city grew, the castle walls began to gain historical value! and after some restorations in the 20th century the castle was ready to show the most interesting side of the country!😮😮
A esto me referia, pagar menos de dos euros por esta vista "no tiene precio" es una bonita experiencia y se aprende bastante sobre la historia de portugal en este pequeño castillo, a partir del siglo 17 ya el castillo no tenia ninguna funcion "defensiva" por lo que no tenia ningun valor militar! luego cuando la ciudad fue creciendo las murallas del castillo pasaron a ganar un valor historico! y luego de unas restauraciones en el siglo XX el castillo estaba listo para mostrar el lado mas interesante el pais!👨‍🏫🏰🏰

Before the museum this was a ruin, with enough evidence to believe that the Romans inhabited Loule for many years, here we have a repertoire of objects on display dating from the "bronze" era and many Roman style ceramics! The main attraction of the museum is the "Moorish ruins" that were excavated and displayed through glass!🚩📚

When we plan our vacations, many of us always try to visit those places that offer us an unforgettable experience. There are those who come to Portugal and spend all their vacations on the beach! and then we have other people with a more "educated" choice and we want to visit the museums! It is a way to learn a lot about medieval history and what better than visiting the Loule castle museum! I liked it a lot that I could see pieces of ceramic and clay vases in perfect condition! other weapons used in the wars against the "Moors"🤩👨‍🏫😮
