The Região de Turismo Planície Dourada is rich in cultural heritage, whether architectonic or ethnographic, so we suggest here several routes that help discover a little of what the region has to offer.

For a better understanding of this region we divide it into four areas with different features:

the Campo Branco (White Lands), the Lands of Bread and Wine, the Left Bank of the Guadiana river, and Beja – Queen of the Plain.

Visiting the Lands of Bread and Wine is getting to know the municipalities in which the wine production marks the landscape and the way of life. We propose in this route a visit to Alvito, Vidigueira, Cuba and Ferreira do Alentejo .
