2. Here we can quickly travel back to the past, when there were no cars, and imagine the silence broken by the chirping of birds, the voices of the people in the distance or the passing of horses and carts. Sintra was the refuge of kings, queens, nobles and nobles. At the gates of the capital, it was the destination of the Portuguese nobility and elites in the past, and even today the romantic architecture left here helps to remember and create this charisma.

   1,5 h

3. The Palace of Quinta da Regaleira was built at the beginning of the 20th century. XX by the millionaire António Augusto Carvalho Monteiro (1848-1920) who managed to make one of his dreams come true here, with the help of the scenographer architect Luigi Manini (1848-1936). Surrounded by lush vegetation, the Regaleira Palace is a fascinating discovery. The Palace was built in a romantic revivalist style, recovering Gothic, Manueline and Renaissance architectural and decorative forms, mixed with mythical and esoteric symbology. A special highlight is the Capela da Santíssima Trindade, which leads down to the crypt and down a spiral staircase to the monumental initiatory well which, at the bottom, leads the visitor through a cave to a surprising lake in the middle of the gardens.

   2 h

4. At the westernmost point of continental Europe, Cabo da Roca offers a unique panoramic view over the immensity of the Atlantic Ocean. The imposing lighthouse, with its tower covered in white tiles and a red balcony, stands out for being one of the oldest in Portugal.

   1 h

5. Before gaining town status, Cascais was a peaceful village of fishermen and farmers until the mid-14th century. Its strategic position in relation to the defense of Lisbon, meant that important fortifications were built there over the years, such as the Fort of Santo António da Barra and the Fort of Santa Marta. To this day, Cascais continues to attract many people from abroad, who often choose Cascais when they move to Portugal. In addition, it is an unmissable tourist spot that is less than an hour from Lisbon and easily accessible. See below all our tips on where to eat, where to stay and what to do in Cascais Portugal.

About Lisboa

Lisboa baja por sus colinas hasta el Tajo: fachadas de azulejos, tranvías amarillos, miradores y cenas tardías sin prisa.

Los barrios antiguos guardan la mayor parte del encanto. El laberinto de callejas de la Alfama sube hasta el castillo de San Jorge y por la noche resuena con fado, la cuadrícula ordenada de la Baixa baja hasta la amplia Praça do Comércio junto al río, y el Bairro Alto y el Chiado mezclan librerías y cafés de día con bares de noche. Miradores como Santa Luzia y Senhora do Monte enmarcan tejados rojos y aguas brillantes.
