Sintra Mountains

I took this in March in Sintra, Portugal! It's at the fairy tale castle Pena Palace :). This is one of the lovely close-up views. It's is a Romanticist castle that stands on the top of a hill in the Sintra Mountains. And undoubtedly one of the most iconic places in Portugal. And a dream come true to visit it! It is a national monument and constitutes one of the major expressions of 19th-century Romanticism in the world. The palace is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the Seven Wonders of Portugal. It is also used for state occasions by the President of the Portuguese Republic and other government officials. Thanks to Wikipedia for help ;).

9/10 Wonderful! (37 reviews)
Great location with metro stops, groceries, souvenirs, ATMs, and a selection of restaurants within a short walk. Friendly staff, spotless room. I liked leaving the French doors to the balcony open for fresh air, but the street noises were loud, as in any city. I was surprised at how much the French doors blocked the noise. No trouble sleeping.
