Here are a couple shots of the Praca do Giraldo, the public square in Evora, Portugal. It has a long, and often bloody history (including the public burning of Inquisition victims), but now it's mainly a lovely place to grab a bit and people watch. Evora is the current leading option for places where we'd settle if we move to Portugal: nice size (not too big or too small), great places to eat, a pretty vibrant cultural life, only a hour and a half by train to Lisbon, and they have a great bookstore. Oh, and I can imagine us sitting in this square, grabbing lunch and taking in the sights.
