On this walk we will discover Sintra, a World Heritage Site. We will know its history, myths and legends as well as the rich gastronomy and beautiful palaces. Join us!
Olá! Join this walk, in which we will visit the town and gardens of Sintra, declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO. We will walk through its medieval streets and discover the place where the Portuguese royalty decided to place the summer court. All this at the foot of the security of the Castelo dos mouros. Palaces and castles seem to spring from the mountain, and these years later will dazzle poets of the stature of the famous Lord Byron. We will follow in his footsteps and on this walk we will visit: Vila de Sintra, with its famous sweets, the Queijadas and the travesseiros. In front of Palacio da Vila, I will tell you about the kings and queens that inhabited it and how the history of Portugal and the world changed from those rooms. Once outside the village, we will go in search of the palaces that populate the mountains, and we will talk about the perhaps most famous, Palacio da pena. Passing by one that is closer to us in time and the fifth of the Regaleira is equally interesting. After the tour, you will be ready to visit the interior of any of these palaces and discover their secrets more closely. Or stop and regain strength with a little Sintrense gastronomy …
