• Castelo dos Mouros - Moorish Castle – Sintra
  Monuments
  Nestled along two Sintra mountain ranges, the Moorish Castle dates back to the early Moorish occupation of the Peninsula in the eighth century. After numerous attempts, it was finally captured by Dom Afonso Henriques, the first king of Portugal, in 1147, who established the city’s first Christian Chapel dedicated to St. Peter of Penaferrim. During the romantic period in 1860, the walls were restored under the guidance of Dom Fernando II, husband of Dona Maria II, who also landscaped the surrounding areas, bestowing new dignity upon the ancient medieval ruins. Notable features include the Moorish Cistern and the Royal Tower. It is located approximately 3.5 km from Sintra’s historic center.

A restaurant is now located in one of the palace wings, featuring a terrace with a stunning panoramic view of the Sintra Mountains and the coast.

  Located near Sintra’s historic center, Quinta da Regaleira is one of the most intriguing sites in Sintra. Built in the early 20th century by millionaire Antonio Augusto Carvalho Monteiro (1848-1920), with the help of scenographic architect Luigi Manini (1848-1936), it fulfilled one of Monteiro’s dreams.

The palace was constructed in a romantic revivalist style, emulating Gothic, Manueline, and Renaissance architectural and decorative forms, infused with mythical and esoteric symbolism. A highlight is the Holy Trinity Chapel, where visitors can descend a spiral staircase to the crypt and discover the monumental initiation well that leads through a cave to a hidden lake in the gardens.
