From the Sintra World / Places

National Palace of Pena

Sintra’s colourful Romantic palace crowns a hill above the town. Revival-style architecture and royal rooms make the interior a different experience from the surrounding Pena Park.

Why go

The palace blends revival styles around an old monastery and preserves royal rooms above the town. Its hilltop setting gives the painted façades a dramatic approach. Allow separate time for Pena Park, whose paths and distant viewpoints make a much longer walking visit.

What to look for

  • Royal rooms survive within the colourful hilltop palace.

Useful to know

  • Allow separate time for Pena Park’s longer walking routes.
