Host Country
Portugal has a population of about 10 million. The
population density is at its greatest in Lisbon, the
capital and its suburbs, where about 1.9 million
people live. The second largest city in Portugal is
Porto in the north. Generally speaking, there are
more people living in the country s coastal regions
than in the inland areas.
With its climate, 3000 hours of sunshine per year
and 850km of splendid beaches bathed by the
Atlantic Ocean, Portugal is the perfect holiday
destination all year round. This is a country that has
the oldest borders in Europe, with an exceptional
range of different landscapes just a short distance
away, lots of leisure activities and a unique cultural
heritage, where tradition and modernity blend
together in perfect harmony. Its superb cuisine, fine
wines and hospitable people make this a tourist
paradise of the highest quality.
Situated in the extreme south-west of Europe, just a
few hours from any of the other European capitals,
Portugal attracts visitors from all over the world.
