What should you know about Portugal before visit that country?

Are you planning to visit Portugal in a near future? You should, it worths your time. Anyway, here we have an article where citizens from that country give some advices for you. Actually, what we asked them was: "If a group of people just came to your country from overseas, what advice would you give to them?". In this first part of three, we interviewed Ana Rita and made a summary of what she said.

Strong points:

• The well-preserved heritage
• The variety of entertainment and landscape: it has both rural and modern places near each other, due to the size of the country
• Receptive and welcoming people - however, you have to be aware that they change of mood quickly, as some foreigners noticed in {this article}

How to establish a daily-routine in Portugal?

• You will need a place to stay - if just for a short period of time, any hotel ou camp is fine, but other ways, maybe a friend's house or your own house is better. The interviewd girl stated she hasn't any experience with traveling, so she doesn't have anything to recommend.
• If anything more, you should try portuguese food. Their meals have a big variety and tons of plates with fish, but what the girl loves the most is the breakfast: some teenagers eat milk with cereals, but most portugueses prefer a ot drink (like chocolate milk or milk with coffee) and toasts.
• Their English is acceptable, so if you don't know any basic expressions in portuguese, it's not an obstacle to communication.
• It's better for you to search if there are some high differences in the behaviour between Portugal and your own country. At least if you don't want to run the risk of getting offended or offend by accident.

Things you should enjoy in Portugal: 

• The weather and the sunset
• Travelings in "Elétricos" (trams), good to know cities like Porto
• Cultural attractions: Pena's Palace it's remarkable, but {here} you have a list to more tastes.

Here we have done a entirely list about things you must do in Portugal - it says basically the same as Ana Rita, but with more apealling pictures
