SINTRA TOWN - CASTLE
Well what can I say, this is one of the most beautiful places I have ever been and I travel a loT! I have never seen such a beautiful town and the imagines you are about to see will blow your mind.
Sintra is a resort town in the foothills of Portugal’s Sintra Mountains, near the capital, Lisbon. A longtime royal sanctuary, its forested terrain is studded with pastel-colored villas and palaces.
The Moorish- and Manueline-style Sintra National Palace is distinguished by dramatic twin chimneys and elaborate tilework. The hilltop 19th-century Pena National Palace is known for a whimsical design and sweeping views.
We drove for a while into the hills and kept going up to see the most famous castle ever! The botanic gardens around were stunning, and so green.
We then climbed higher and reached the castle. I have never seen anything like this before, red, yellow, white, blue , black and all sorts of colours were expressed in this castle. It really felt like a fairy tale and more like a disney world castle.
I mean just look at that entrance and the doors!
We were so high, it was almost in the clouds. I mean literally clouds where passing by and the temperature up there dropped a lot!
The view from there overlooking the city was unbelievable. I have never seen anything like that before! Just wow!
We also decided to do a bit of a photoshoot and pose in front of these colourful walls! I mean why not? Even @ivargereiko and @nanzo-scoop can be a model!
It was getting darker and windier and it was time to go, but I also took some night shots of the castle, I just couldnt resist. It is absolutely stunning!

Me and @vaelriey visited there too! Palácio da Pena was exactly as you described, I almost feel like not wanting to go back home and stay there forever!!
I guess i should tell the story of Sintra from my perspective too. Afterall it's part and parcel of why Steemfest is held in Lisbon!!
