    Default South Portugal Route (EU)

    Here's a short video and some pictures of our latest trip the past month to the South region of Portugal (Europe).
    This a well know and historic mining area (pyrite). It has also historic moorish influences has the region was occupied until the XV century.

    The lovely white village by the river is Mértola with it's medieval castle on top.

    It's the statue of (not an easy name) Abu Alcacim Amade ibne Huceine ibne Cassi.

    He was a sufist, political leader and king for a very short time of the Algarve Kingdom (nowadays the very South region of Portugal).

    It is said that he was of christian origins (because of the name Cassi which is Roman) and later converted to Islam.
