Portugal is situated at the south-west point of Europe, bordered with Spain and also includes the Madeira and Azores archipelagos in the Atlantic Ocean. The country as a whole is one of contrast, from the cosmopolitan resorts in the south to the relative unspoiled and often undeveloped parts of the countryside comprising small town and villages where the pace and style of living has remained unchanged for many years. Some of Portugal's main exports include Port Wine - named after the country's second largest city, Porto and Madeira Wine - named after Madeira Island. Portugal is the world largest producer of Cork.
