Portugal is a country in southern Europe, located on the Iberian Peninsula, which borders Spain. Its location on the shores of the Atlantic Ocean has influenced many aspects of the country's culture: salted cod and grilled sardines are typical national dishes, the beaches of the Algarve are popular destinations and much of the country's architecture dates from the 16th to 19th centuries, when Portugal was a mighty maritime empire.
