The Pena Palace (Portuguese: Palácio da Pena) is a Romanticist castle in São Pedro de Penaferrim, in the municipality of Sintra, on the Portuguese Riviera. The castle stands on the top of a hill in the Sintra Mountains above the town of Sintra, and on a clear day it can be easily seen from Lisbon and much of its metropolitan area. 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.
Wish you a wonderful and happy week my friends :))**

Although there are many places to visit in Sintra, I preferred rambling through Sintra's streets, both narrow and wide. I find the Sintra architecture very beautiful and quite peculiar, conveying a mysterious sense of dignity in spite of their old age.

El Palacio Nacional de Sintra es Patrimonio Mundial de la Unesco y uno de los más peculiares de Portugal gracias a sus dos chimeneas cónicas que pueden observarse casi desde cualquier punto de Sintra. Aunque el palacio, en su origen, era de estilo árabe, fue renovado en el siglo XV siguiendo el estilo manuelino. Fue residencia real hasta la república y ahora es un centro cultural.

Marně bádám nad sprostým slovem o počasí v městě Sintra. Znám jich mnoho. Teď mě něco napadlo...jenže to už je tak sprosté, že ani Flickr by to neunes. Prostě počasí v městě Sintra stálo za hovno, volím tu slušnou verzi!
View of Sintra .. here you can see the Paço do Concelho (the tower is all covered in azulejos), built in early 1900. Sintra is a Unesco Heritage and an unique place; about 30 minutes frm Lisbon, its fascinating not only for its beauty and unique climate, but for its Palaces and History.
A favourite holiday place of the Royal family and beloved by the British its a charming place.

Em Sintra e arredores, encontramos ícones da arquitetura portuguesa como o Castelo dos Mouros, de influência árabe, o Palácio da Pena, com as suas múltiplas influências que incluem o gótico, o manuelino e o renascentista, e o palácio de Seteais, neoclássico e romântico, além dos palacetes como esse belo exemplar.
