Your Itinerary

Sintra

The natural landscape of Sintra gives this mythical place a unique beauty. The green of the mountains and the blue of the sea merge, enchanting and inspiring its residents and visitors. The urban agglomeration, which constitutes the so-called Vila Velha, provides, due to its antiquity and heterogeneity, an exciting tour through the human past where one can feel and admire the different eras that governed the flow of history.

Parque e Palacio de Monserrate

A retreat for writers, Monserrate attracted countless foreign travelers, mainly English, who extolled its beauty in travel reports and engravings. When Francis Cook, a wealthy 19th-century English industrialist and great art collector, visited the site, he was fascinated. From this passion was born a masterpiece of Romanticism: a visit to the Park and Palace of Monserrate.

Extremely friendly, personable and professional guide. Loved the pick up service at the Airbnb. Only constructive feedback would be that the guide provide detailed history of the site being visited.

The guide was amazing. He picked us up on time and drove us around center. We had a delightful time in the town, and then saw the Montserrat palace and got the history on that and everything and then had plenty of time to explore the gardens. Then we went down to Kosh And had an amazing drive along the beach in the ocean and through the little town and had lunch there. The guide left us before the lunch because the tour was over, but it was just the perfect day. He was knowledgeable and just really was in tune to our pace .

We visited Monserrate Palace as our final stop during our round trip of Sintra's palaces. Monserrate Palace grounds were leafy and cool, and the palace interior was beautifully designed, although small. The only disappointment was the rose garden, which was empty due to being out-of-season.

В регионе Синтра нет более уникального здания, чем Паласио-де-Монсеррат. Вилла имеет причудливый арабский дизайн, окружена классическими английскими садами и расположена на зубчатых холмах Серра-де-Синтра. Паласио-де-Монсеррат с тремя башнями — самое яркое здание Синтры, вдохновленное исламской архитектурой и идеалом симметрии. Внутри изысканно тонкая решетчатая резьба, геометрические узоры и ощущение присутствия в какой-то роскошной ближневосточной обстановке. Главное здание может быть какофонией экзотических идей, но сад — это маленький кусочек Англии в приятном климате Португалии. Вилла была заказана англичанином сэром Фрэнсисом Куком, и он хотел, чтобы вокруг его виллы был сад в классическом английском стиле. К вилле ведет формальная лужайка, красивый розарий и ботанический сад, состоящий из 1000 различных видов.

Il palazzo più romantico di Sintra: Palacio de Monserrate Il Palazzo è immerso in un enorme parco botanico con tante specie di piante provenienti da tutto il mondo. Il palazzo in stile romantico non è particolarmente grande ma è singolare e bello. Anch’esso considerato patrimonio mondiale. Serre, ponti, statue, cascate, archi, stagni e fontane nel parco di Monserrate non manca proprio nullla.

Local soberbo. Gostei imenso de visitar este espaço. O único ponto negativo foi o facto de a loja, WC e cafetaria se encontrarem encerradas (infelizmente o preço cobrado pelo bilhete foi o mesmo), algo que não pode acontecer num local tão especial como este. Para a visita recomendo que levem alimentação, água e uma tolha para se deleitarem a apreciar as vistas soberbas do parque e do palácio. Recomendo vivamente a visita.
