This city was once the capital of the whole district and was still referred to in the beginning of the 19th Century as the Kingdom of the Algarve. So much history is attached to Silves and the beauty of the area is just as impressive.

Standing proudly on a hill; Silves has so much history that it can be traced back to existing some 1.000 BC, this tumulous city of yesterday offers today a picturesque charm of houses surrounded by almond and carob trees, where the broad sweep of hills are a haven for ramblers and nature lovers, a holiday destination where it is a pleasure simply to be alive between orange groves and hills.
