Quinta da Regaleira

And what is Quinta da Regaleira? They are gardens and a palace that we find in the heart of the Sintra Park. It was built in the twentieth century with a clear slogan: that the palace had all the artistic movements of the time. For this, Luigi Manini, the architect who was in charge of the work, traveled throughout Europe and on his return he brought back the Manueline, neo-Gothic and mythological ideas he had found. As we shall see, mysteries were also built here, one of the most unique being the so-called Initiatory Well of Sintra, a well that, it is said, was used by the Freemasons!
