Moura  Portugal

Moura is a city and a municipality in the District of Beja in Portugal. It is also home to one of the best historical restaurants in the region of Alentejo, The Fronteiro-Mor. The town's Mouraria (Moorish quarter) is one of the best-preserved in southern Portugal, consisting of an alley and three streets of narrow, cobbled lanes with low whitewashed cottages featuring strange turretted chimneys. The Mouraria is also home to the Museum Arabe, which houses a rare collection of remnants dating back to the Moorish occupation of southern Portugal. The church of Nossa Senhora do Carmo occupies the site of the first Carmelite convent in Portugal. It was from here that the monks left to found the Convento do Carmo in Lisbon. Nossa Senhora do Carmo has been the patron saint of Moura since the thirteenth century. Moura is close to the River Guadiana, where typical flat-bottomed hexagonal rowing boats are still used.
