Portugal
Portugal's topography is a diverse tapestry of rugged mountains, rolling plains, and extensive coastlines. In the north, the landscape is predominantly mountainous, with the Serra da Estrela range featuring Torre, the highest peak on mainland Portugal at 1,993 meters. This region is characterized by steep slopes and deep valleys carved by rivers such as the Douro and Mondego. Moving southward, the terrain transitions into the undulating plains of the Alentejo, marked by gentle hills and expansive agricultural fields. The southernmost region, the Algarve, boasts a varied landscape of limestone caves, grottoes, and sandy beaches along its coastline. Portugal's extensive Atlantic coastline stretches over 1,700 kilometers, featuring a mix of rugged cliffs and sandy shores. Additionally, the archipelagos of Madeira and the Azores, both autonomous regions of Portugal, are known for their volcanic origins, resulting in dramatic landscapes of craters, lakes, and lush vegetation.
