The Pena Palace is the highlight of the region. Situated at the top of the Serra de Sintra, this vibrantly coloured and romantic monument is one of the most photographed in Portugal. Walk through its corridors, admire its terraces and enjoy unrivalled views of the green hills and the ocean in the distance.
