Pousada Arraiolos Nossa Senhora da Assuncao
The starting point for the Pousada was the restoration of a sixteenth century convent situated in a valley in Arraiolos a city that is world famous for its carpets. The Pousada is an example of the achievement of perfect harmony between the traditional and modern concepts of Portuguese architecture and a felicitous example of adapting the austerity of a convent to today s standards of comfort. A wonderful excuse to get to know the traditional art of carpet making.
