Sintra and its Natural Park are Heritages Sites of Unesco and a very popular tourist destination among the Portuguese. Visit this museum town and its romantic landscapes
If you intend to visite the surroudings of Lisbon then I suggest a tour to Sintra with its beautiful palaces located in the middle of a exotic vegetation. In the historical downtown you can visit the oldest summer residence of the royal family. This palace has two huge chimneys (Sintra´s landmark), courtyards decorated with spanish arabic tiles and an unique atmosphere. Afterwords we continue our tour to the Cape Roca, the most western point of continental Europe. Then we pass by Cascais and Estoril two summer towns located 30 km from Lisbon on the Estoril cost.
