Sintra National Palace Stop 3
The Sintra National Palace, also known as Palácio da Vila, was one of the palaces used by the Portuguese Royal Family. The monument, of medieval, gothic, manueline, renaissance and romantic architecture, is an "ex-libris" of Sintra.
Pass by
National Palace of Pena Stop 4
Known as the sacred jewel that crowns the Sintra Mountains, the National Palace of Pena, one of the greatest examples of Romanticism in Portugal, appears, through the fog characteristic of the region, with its colorful hues, as if it were a fairy tale. The whole scenario leaves a certain mystery and adventure in the air.
1h
Castelo dos Mouros Stop 5
Right on top of the mountain is the Castelo dos Mouros, a fortification whose walls wind up the mountain between rocks and cliffs that dates back to the time of the Muslim occupation of the Iberian Peninsula. From here you can enjoy a unique panoramic view of the town, the Pena Palace, and the ocean that surrounds Portugal.
1h
Parque e Palacio de Monserrate Stop 6
On this day in the romantic town of Sintra, you will also have the opportunity to see and visit, if you wish, the Park and Palace of Monserrate.
