Sintra National Palace

The National Palace of Sintra, also known as the Town Palace, is located in the parish of Sintra, in the town of Sintra, Lisbon District, in Portugal. It was one of the Royal Palaces and is now owned by the Portuguese State, which uses it for tourism and cultural purposes.

Quinta da Regaleira

The Palácio da Regaleira is the main building and the most common name of Quinta da Regaleira, also called Palácio do Monteiro dos Míveis, due to the nickname of the owner António Augusto de Carvalho Monteiro who, having been distinguished by King Dom Carlos I on August 16, 1904 as baron of Almeida, he was the one who commissioned the construction of the palace in its current configuration

Praia das Azenhas do Mar

Azenhas do Mar is a village on the coast of the municipality of Sintra, parish of Colares. The place developed along the Cameijo river, which runs into the Atlantic and breaks the cliffs of the coast, and on which there were watermills, has at its base a beach where there is an oceanic pool.

Cascais

Located next to the sea and traditionally a fishing village, Cascais underwent important development in the 19th century. XIV, when it was a busy port of call for ships heading to Lisbon. However, it was from the 2nd half of the century onwards. In the 19th century, when sea bathing began to be popular, Cascais underwent a boost that transformed it into a very fashionable summer resort. The main driver of the transformation was the King of Portugal D. Luís I, who in 1870 converted the citadel fortress into the summer residence of the Portuguese monarchy. This example was followed by the nobility who built mansions and beautiful villas here where they spent the hottest time of the year, completely transforming the old fishing village.
