It is a good place for the price! The view from the tower was great! Really enjoyed walking through there. Only giving 4 stars, because one of the candle machines would eat the 10cents coins and not light any candle, and when we told the staff about the issue, just to inform, they did not care about it... It’s a place worth to visit!
Beautiful cathedral and cloisters, reasonable price too. Allow 30 minutes or so to wander
This is Hogwards of Evora! Must see
One of the best views in all of Évora. The church is fantastic and has amazing architecture that withstood time. You can gain access to the roof and it's a great experience to be on the roof and see the sights and views of Évora. This is a most visit if you happen to visit Évora.
We were a little disappointed in Évora to be truthful. It is highly recommended by so many guide books that perhaps we were expecting too much. It is an old hill top fortified village with white marble and granite roads and pavements but the more places in Portugal you visit you realise that this is normal. Marble is referred to as 'White Gold' by the Portuguese. In fact seek out the huge working marble quarry on the road To Evora. Blink and you will miss the entrance. You can park your car just inside the gates and look over a 'rail' down into the quarry. It is NOT open to the public but its free to take a look over the railings. To be fair the day we visited Évora it was a hot October day roughly at 'siesta' time so the place was deserted and shops closed. Atmosphere makes a big difference to a place and this had none the day we went. Having said that the highlight of the day (the only one) was the Cathedral. Its vast and has access to the roof terrace which offers far reaching views. There is a cafe and toilets downstairs. There is an entrance fee to get in. We didn't have time to visit the Museum which is literally on the square almost in front of the impressive Temple of Diana. We paid to park just outside the village walls by the University and walked up into the square.
Very difficult to get parking around or even find your way around، but it's worth the visit especially when you climb to the roof top of the cathedral, and the entrance fee is very reasonable 3.50 a person.
Outstanding, Amazing. The roof top walk a must. Also the visit, view of the Roman \Diana\ Temple.
