Main Entrance of Pena Palace

Highlight • Castle

The main entrance of Pena Palace leads directly into the colorful, fairytale world of this famous Sintra landmark. Even here, the blend of vibrant facades, decorative arches, and Moorish influences that give the palace its distinctive character is truly impressive. It's a striking starting point for exploring one of Portugal's most iconic attractions.

Pena National Palace

Highlight • Castle

Pena Palace is one of Portugal's most famous buildings, perched in vibrant colors on a hill overlooking Sintra. With its luminous facades, Moorish and Manueline details, and richly decorated courtyards, it resembles a palace from a fairytale. From its terraces, breathtaking views open up across the surrounding forests and all the way to the Atlantic coast.
