The Algarve's medieval charm can be found in its first capital: Silves! Between walls, legends and landscapes, we go from the castle to the market, from the castle to the cathedral, always between tradition and culture. The current capital of Orange is shrouded in legends and tales such as that of the Muslim princess who fell madly in love with the Christian warrior. With one of the largest and most important medieval castles in the Algarve, Silves is a must-see. A must-see, the castle, built under Arab rule, protected the city and allowed control of the region when it was conquered by King Sancho I and Count Afonso II from the Moors. Visit the imposing cathedral and the rich surrounding market.
