The vast, sun-baked plain of the "Baixo Alentejo", where visitors can drive for miles among wheatfields and olive trees without seeing a soul, also encompass many towns and villages which reflect the long Moorish occupation, with narrow streets, amazingly whitewashed houses and decorative tiles. In some places, like Beja, history goes back even further, to the Roman times, when it became a regional capital under Julius Caesar. The Moorish arquitecture is visible in the cobbled streets and houses of the old town, and a castle from the 13th century reminds us of the struggle to keep them away.Another castle of equally Moorish origins, can be seen in Serpa, but the main attraction of this peaceful agricultural town, also known for its cheese, is the Beja gate: huge walls toppedd by an aqueduct. Serpa stands near the Spanish border and, as this region was once disputed both from the Moors and the Spaniards, there are several watchtowers and fortresses along the hills.The vineyards around Vidigueira announce its position as a centre of wine production, the Alentejo offers several fine quality wines.Mértola is another place to visit. this small town is a sort of museum, exhibiting discoveries from different eras in separate areas, from the Phoenicians to the Romans and, specially, the Moors. In the present day, Mértola represents also the possibility to have to have an unforgettable ride in the Guadiana river, or to taste some local specialities such as the lamprey.
