Pena Palace
Sightseeing

Pena Palace

Pena Palace is the most spectacular of Portugal's palaces, a wildly romantic 19th-century Romanticist confection of turrets, towers, and battlements perched atop a forested hill in Sintra, 40 km from Lisbon. Built by King Ferdinand II from 1842-1854 as a summer royal residence, its candy-colored facades and eclectic blend of Moorish, Gothic, Renaissance, and Manueline styles are deliberately theatrical. The palace and its surrounding Cultural Landscape of Sintra are a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of Portugal's most visited attractions.

São Jorge Castle
Sightseeing

São Jorge Castle

São Jorge Castle (Castelo de São Jorge) is Lisbon's oldest and most prominent historic monument, a Moorish castle crowning the hilltop of the São Jorge hill in the historic Alfama district. The present fortification dates from the 11th-century Moorish occupation, though the site has been fortified since the Iron Age. Its towers and battlements offer sweeping 360-degree views over Lisbon, the Tagus River, and the sea. The castle contains the ruins of the royal palace used by Portuguese kings and is surrounded by a pleasant park with peacocks and black swans.
