Pelourinho de Monsaraz
A compact, cobbled hilltop square anchored by a granite pillory (pelourinho) framed by whitewashed Alentejo houses, ornate doorways and the medieval castle. Shoot strong silhouettes and warm stone textures with sweeping panoramas of the Alentejo plains and the Alqueva reservoir. Best at golden hour (sunrise or sunset) for soft, warm light and long shadows; weekday mornings are quiet. The square is pedestrian and freely accessible; parking is available near the castle gate. Expect narrow streets,
