In progressSilves is a charming fortified city that was once the capital of the Algarve. Today Silves has a quiet and peaceful atmosphere, but was an important fortress and trading town during the Moorish period. Remains of this glorious past, such as the huge red stone castle, the impregnable city walls and the Gothic cathedral, which was built on the site of a large mosque. In addition to an extensive history and numerous sights, Silves is also picturesque amidst the rolling hills of the Algarve and on the banks of the slow flowing Rio Arade. Near the city is the Pestana Silves Golf, a breathtaking golf course. With a beautiful view of the Serra de Monchique, the historic city of Silves and the orange plantations.
