In the highlands of the Tagus basin, coniferous trees are numerous, supporting a well-developed timber industry. |
The Tagus covers the heart of Portugal and Spain and has been of vital importance to the modern economic development of the two nations. |
The castle's impressive battlements and tree-shaded gardens offer excellent views over the city and the estuary of the Tagus river. |
The Tagus valley is narrow, and barren of supplies, and almost as circuitous a route from France as the Guadiana. |
The same is true of the catchment areas of the rivers Guadalquivir, Guadiana and JĂșcar, Tagus and Douro. |
By the middle of May, 1588, the Armada was at last ready to sail from the Tagus. |
