It was given this accolade by the Telegraph's 30 Best Winter Sun Destinations.

Faro's generous temperatures match the nine hours of daylight it gets as the nights draw in in Britain. And what's more, there's a tonne of things to explore. The city has a rich history dating back to 418 AD, although much of the ancient buildings were destroyed when a huge earthquake hit the region in 1755.
