In evidenza

If you have the feeling that Lisbon might not be enough for you, then try a one day trip to Sintra and surroundings. Classified as a UNESCO World Heritage site, Sintra might be more than you bargained for. The royal retreats, estates, castles and other buildings, including views of the medieval Castelo dos Mouros, the Pena National Palace and the Sintra National Palace will take you by surprise. What you thought to be a simple one day trip from Lisbon, might hook you for your entire trip. At the western end of the Serra de Sintra mountain is also the most western point of Europe, Cabo da Roca. You might not want to leave.

About Sintra

Sintra is a hill town west of Lisbon, wrapped in misty forest and crowned by a Moorish castle, a colourful Romantic palace and mysterious gardens.

Sintra is a UNESCO-listed cultural landscape on the Serra de Sintra, a granite ridge that catches Atlantic mist and keeps the hills green and cool. Portuguese kings and nobles built summer palaces here. The Pena Palace, a painted fantasy of yellow and red towers, sits on the highest hill, while the Moorish Castle's walls climb the ridge nearby, and the old centre has the Sintra National Palace, recognisable by its two conical chimneys.

Top-ranked sights in Sintra: Quinta da Regaleira, Convent of the Capuchos.
