Hurtige fakta: Perched on the Sintra mountains, this castle offers sweeping views over the town and the Atlantic Ocean. It once served as a Moorish fortress guarding the region against enemies with its massive stone walls and towers.
Højdepunkter: Explore the castle's winding walls that stretch over 800 meters with battlements where you can almost hear the echoes of ancient sentries. Climb the dizzying towers and spy the stunning landscape that inspired countless legends, including tales of Moorish kings and knights.
Insidertips
