1. Sanctuary of Santa Eufémia It's one of the sacred sources of water and an amazing sight; here we will connect with the ancient legends of Sintra.  From here, we will walk about 2 km to a sacred lake with living waters; when you're up to it, we can do some relaxing and breathing exercises to get into the teluric frequency of Sintra's waters. "Please bring a pareo or scarf to sit on and wipe your feet after soaking in the lake."

5. We stop in the mountains, and we're having a wonderful sightseeing tour of Pena Palace. The Parks of Pena are beautiful botanical gardens in Romantic style, with connections to ancient heritages and exotic landscapes. Originally the main source, Penha of Sintra has been a pilgrimage point all over the civilizations and centuries's... The yellow Royal Palace was built as the summer residence of the last dynasty of kings in the 19th century. Integrating all the heritages and symbols of our nation in the romantic expression of his time. If you want to visit on a tour, I suggest the tour by the exterior and the parks that you can choose at the moment; the interior is always crowded, and you have to schedule the day before to 1 p.m.

   20 min

6. Quinta da Regaleira It's a very unique, symbolic, and mystic palace that expresses a scenography of the Alchemy of the Spirituality, with the misterious Iniciatic Well connected with the Templaires origin of Portugal. To see it up close, you have to go on foot. On the way to Pena, we get a brief view from afar. If you wish to visit, which is optional, you must book tickets in advance, at a time that suits the flow of the tour.

7. On the road to Monserrate, you will pass some attractions, like the Palácio de Seteais and one of the beautiful Fountains of Sintra. Then we stop by the Park and Palace of Monserrate. Once more, past history connects with the Romantic time of Sintra, where an English merchant built its beautiful summer residence with amazing architecture and the beautiful gardens that characterize all these palaces of Sintra. That's the park and palace that I suggest visiting on a tour. Here we finish the palace sightseeing and follow to the wonderful natural places, where we connect with the water sources and the immense Atlantic Ocean.
