    The Royal Palace of Évora, also known as the Paço Real de Évora, is a historical site located in the heart of Évora, Portugal. Visitors generally appreciate its rich history and architectural significance. The palace, which dates back to the 15th century, offers a glimpse into Portugal's royal past.

    Many reviewers note the palace's impressive Gothic-Manueline architecture, particularly the beautiful windows and intricate stonework. The King Manuel Wing, with its distinctive twisted columns and ornate decorations, is often highlighted as a standout feature.

    While the palace is not fully furnished, guests often comment on the well-preserved structure and the ability to explore various rooms and corridors. Some visitors mention that the audio guide (when available) provides helpful context and historical information.

    On the downside, some reviewers point out that the palace can feel somewhat empty, as much of the original furniture and decor is no longer present. A few visitors have mentioned that more informative displays or exhibits could enhance the experience.

    The rooftop terrace is frequently praised for offering panoramic views of Évora, although access may be limited during certain times or seasons.

    Overall, the Royal Palace of Évora is generally considered a worthwhile stop for those interested in Portuguese history and architecture. However, visitors should manage their expectations regarding the extent of the furnishings and exhibits inside.
