Capela dos Ossos, Evora, Portugal The Chapel of Bones - Around an hour and a half from Lisbon, Evora is a popular destination for Portuguese and foreign visitors alike. The biggest draw is undoubtedly the food and wine: Both Evora itself, and the wider Alentejo region in which it sits, are rightly renowned for the quality of the cuisine.
There's more to this attractive city than just its mealtimes, however. The compact downtown area houses several architectural and cultural highlights, the most well-known of which is also the most macabre. Capela dos Ossos translates literally as "The Chapel of Bones," and human bones are exactly what you'll find inside. Thousands of them, in fact, stacked high from floor to ceiling along every wall of this small chapel.

Évora also has the second oldest university in the country, a venerable cathedral, a roll-call of churches and a chapel embellished entirely with human bones.
