About the Location:

Mora is a charming small town in the Évora district of Portugal, known for its peaceful atmosphere, rich history, and beautiful natural surroundings. It offers a relaxed lifestyle with a strong sense of community, making it ideal for those who enjoy rural living.

The town is surrounded by rolling plains, cork oak forests, and the scenic Raia River, providing opportunities for outdoor activities like hiking and fishing. Mora is also home to the Fluviário de Mora, a unique freshwater aquarium. Further North there is the Montargil Reservoir, a preferred destination for aquatic sports lovers and there is an Morargil Aerodrom in the vicinity.

The cost of living is relatively low, and local cuisine features traditional Alentejan dishes. While it has basic amenities, for larger services and entertainment, residents often travel to Coruche, Arraiolos, Montemor-o-Novo or Évora, which is about an hour’s drive away.

Évora is not only the capital of the Alentejo, it is also the living intersection of Portugal’s heritage and a testament to its riches. UNESCO classifies Évora as a World Heritage site for the way history is writ large in its streets. Within the old city walls, one can trace Portugal’s trajectory through Celtic, Roman, Visigoth, and Moorish dominion over two centuries. Today, it is a vibrant and dynamic centre, an essential destination in its own right but also the ideal base from which to explore an authentic Portugal.

Alentejo is a gastronomic destination for some and a natural retreat for others -- a get-away from the coastal bustle. The principal products of Portugal can all be found in the Alentejo: vineyards, potteries, olive groves, cork forests, and marble quarries contribute to the culture and character of the province’s varied villages and towns. It is where generations of students have come to achieve higher learning and where artisans and architects have come to source materials and learn techniques.
