Coruche
Located on the south bank of the Tagus, Coruche is in a transition zone from Ribatejo to Alentejo, dividing into two areas with different landscape characteristics: the marshes and a forest area. The heath, as Almeida Garrett called it, makes up part of the municipality's agricultural area. Coruche is, in fact, one of the most important agricultural centers, meaning that the majority of the active population works in this sector. Cork oak forests make up the bulk of the forest area. In addition to the richness of the plain, Coruche has other charms, closely linked to its people and their customs. Enjoy the typical houses and look for handicrafts: various miniature traditional costumes, cork work, cross stitch embroidery, pottery, basketry, among others, to discover.
