Tiles on the walls, fado in the evening and a small country that sailed around the world.
Portugal is one of the oldest countries in Europe, with borders almost unchanged since the 13th century. Its sailors opened the sea route to India and reached Brazil, and brought back spices, porcelain and new ideas. See the blue and white tiles at the National Tile Museum, the Panels of St Vincent at the National Museum of Ancient Art and the treasures of the Gulbenkian.
