fairy tale, castle, disneyland, only in a movie, is this real?-
words we uttered numerous times while at the Pena National Palace in Sintra.
Lisbon was cool... but this Palace was the highlight of the trip.
I think the pictures speak for themselves, although they definitely don't do it justice.
tip:
+wear your walking shoes
even if you pay the 5euros to take the bus up the mountain (recommended),
it's still a hike up to the palace and from there to the Morrish Castle.
+ it's better to do Sintra on a non-rainy day.

Wow, this is amazing! My kids would freak out - it looks like a REAL fairytale castle. Lucky you! Thanks for sharing the photos!
Great pics of a beautiful place, will want to paint one of these, so colorful, might just have to meet you there.
That was the same thing I thought when I first looked at these pictures: Is that real?! I loveee the faded colors and tiles.. I think I forget about Portugal a lot but your posts have definitely spiked my interest!
Absolutely gorgeous... love that last pic, Nic! Wish you were home this weekend to visit with me and the girls. Miss you!
Looks amazing! So glad you enjoyed your trip to Portugal. It's a lot like Spain and has many similarities in the language, no?
This looks like an imaginary place haha. Gorgeous pictures I can't imagine how it looked in real life!
Wow! That is beautiful!! I would definitely have to go when I go to Lisboa!
Wow this really does look like a fairy tale palace! it reminds me of disneyland!!! i love all the pretty painted glass in portugal. so lovely.
This was one of my most favorite places in Portugal! I remember taking a train trip from Lisbon and just being in shock when we arrived. I also remember running around taking photos pretending that we were royalty. Glad you got to go to such a special and unique place!
