Once the capital of the ancient Moorish kingdom in the Algarve, Silves boasts a storied past that comes to life through its impressive red-brick castle, winding cobbled streets, and gothic cathedral. Its well-preserved monuments tell tales of conquests and cultures that have left an indelible mark on the region.

When to Go
