Faro
Faro is the capital and administrative centre of the Algarve region of Portugal. An attractive town with many points of interest, it is also the kick-off point for the numerous resorts for which the Algarve is famous. Faro has a few Moorish and Roman ruins dating from around the 13th century, but the majority of its attractive older buildings date from the second half of the 18th century, after an earthquake in 1755 devastated the town.
