Portugal, in Southern Europe, shares the Iberian peninsula at the western tip of Europe with Spain. Somewhat isolated from its neighbor, Portugal has a rich, unique culture, lively cities and beautiful countryside.
Although it was once one of the poorest countries in Europe, its incorporation into the European Union has meant increased prosperity. Despite increased prices for travellers, Portugal is still one of the best value destinations on the continent.
