To get a feel for Albufeira, you can follow one of the hiking trails in and around the city. You can even hire a guide to show you the best trails to walk.
The historic part of Albufeira is in a uniform Moorish style. Also reminiscent of the Arab influence, the so-called Moorish arch, which is located on Travessa da Igreja Velha, is all that remains of an ancient mosque. There is also a small museum and the city's art gallery, which holds regular exhibitions throughout the season, a new virtual archaeological museum and a new marina, where everyone can easily find entertainment to suit their taste and pocket.
While walking around Albufeira, you'll discover historical and archaeological sites, walk through green and flowering parks, and admire the wildlife. And as a bonus - relax to the magical sounds of streams, rustling leaves, and birdsong. It is necessary to take into account that the city of Albufeira is all downhill and uphill, so walking on a hot, sunny day can be tiring.
