Sintra Palace, Sintra palace, Portugal
Explore Palacio Nacional Sintra, an exceptional example of medieval architecture that remains largely intact from its construction by Portuguese monarchs over 600 years ago. This remarkable structure exemplifies the harmonious blend of history, artistry, and engineering, making it a significant cultural landmark with enduring appeal.
Experience an unparalleled journey through 1,000 years of Portuguese history by obtaining a skip-the-line admission to the National Palace of Sintra.

Subsequent renovations by King Afonso Henriques in 1147 expanded the structure into what it is today—a testament to architectural evolution over time.
Admire the exquisite blend of Manueline and Mudejar styles within the palace's interior courtyards. Here, marvel at the intricately designed windows featuring surmounted arches and walls adorned with glazed tiles displaying intricate geometric patterns. Each visit offers a unique perspective on Portugal’s rich cultural heritage.
