Faro , for the majority of tourists, has been considered as the entry point, due to the airport, which has maintained a more tranquil and traditional atmosphere over the years, even in high tourism times.
However, that starts to change.
Faro has more to offer than just a gateway to beaches and tourist towns.
As such, my goal is to share what to do on a visit to Faro and with that, I believe you will agree with me that FARO deserves at least a 1-2 day tour.
In addition, the quick access, for those with a car, to other cities in the Algarve is to consider the possibility of Faro / Montenegro being your base for exploring the central and eastern parts of the Algarve region, such as, for example, Loulé, São Brás , Olhão and Tavira.
This will be one of the benefits if you choose to stay in the Rooms Heart Apartment
So let's take a walk around Faro

Arco da Vila
The city's neoclassical Arco da Vila is located on the site of a door that was part of the original Moorish walls. The monumental arch leads to the old city, with its cobbled streets. Nearby is the Sé de Faro, built in the 13th century. The Municipal Museum, in a 16th century convent, displays prehistoric and medieval artifacts, as well as sacred art.
