The Alentejo around Flor da Rosa is beautiful – rolling hills, abundant water, Roman bridges, prehistoric tombs, and endless flowers. I often went out for an hour in the evenings, with the camera.

Fabulous flora Candy!

The yellow flowers are broom, or Cytisus, and I have missed, somehow, the clay amphoras in the Pousada! Oh dear, I will have to return!! And yes, the Alentejo is gorgeous…

Lovely photographs of a region I am entirely unfamiliar with. Thank you for sharing them.

Thank you – it is incredibly beautiful, particularly in the spring, but you need to walk to really enjoy the flowers.

Gorgeous! The bushes with the yellow flowers on the first 2 photos were traditionally used to make clay amphoras. The Flor da Rosa historical hotel has a wonderful collection of these.
