Descripción: La misteriosa y romántica ciudad de Sintra, situada entre bosques y manantiales la convirtieron en residencia veraniega de los reyes de Portugal, quieren erigieron aquí el Palacio Nacional. Designada Patrimonio de la Humanidad por la UNESCO en 1995, la ciudad altrae a miles de visitantes, pero sigue ofreciendo tranquilos entornos al visitante, donde pueden disfrutar de una ciudad encantadora, novelesca y seductora. -------------------------------------------------------- Sintra We also spent a considerable amount of time in the fairy tale royal town of Sintra (Mountain of the Moon). Lord Byron made this town famous by referring to it as a glorious Eden. After our first visit to it, it was easy to understand why. Sintra hasnt lost its charm to this day. Perched on top of one of Sintras hills is Pena Castle and it is a very beautiful site. It is built in 1840 Gothic style. If you dont have a car, you should take a cab to the Castle. It is located up a very steep winding road that is rather scenic but looks rather treacherous. I know that my wife had white knuckles all the way up and all the way down - no faith in my driving ability (or anyone elses, I noticed that on our last visit, you can only get to the Castle by bus or taxi). Once youre there it is well worth it. It sort of looks like something they would create in Disneyland, but its here in Portugal and it is for real. The palace is surrounded by a beautiful park filled with a variety of trees and flowers brought from every corner of the Portuguese Empire by Dom Fernando. (menos)
