"Sintra the misterious land - Under... " a Sintra Travel Page by RedMoon

Sintra is a touristical place, that stays not very far from Lisbon.
You can get there by train and that takes about 40 minutes, its very easy to find the trains that stops there once is terminal stacion -Sintra- in Sintra line. You can pick up that train in Sete Rios stacion or Entrecampos (if u go from Lisbon to Sintra) and takes about 20 by car (if theres no traffic)
When u arrive to Sintra inside of train stacion u have a touristical post where u can get all informacion u need about places where to go or where to stay. There are quite many in Sintra village.
Considered as one of the more misterious places of the world for the most different reasons, I really find it a must to drop by.

Even if u dont go to any museum, u can enjoy Sintra by its architecture, and drop by the tradicional coffees to try the Sintra cheese-cakes.
Sintra's mountain ridge starts right on the heart of the 'Vila' and ends into the Ocean, on the most western point of mainland Europe - Cabo da Roca.
Some nice houses, gardens, and monuments get together in one of the most perfect combinations.. I personally love it

Declared a World Heritage site by UNESCO, Sintra is home to the aristocracy who chose it to build their palaces and mansion-houses.
Before you leave Sintra, make sure you visit the Royal Palace (Paço Real), the National Palace of Pena (Palácio Nacional da Pena), the Moors Castle (castelo dos Mouros), the Monserrate Palace and its gardens (Palácio de Monserrate) and some of the museums, like the most singular Toy Museum (Museu do Brinquedo) that displays a fascinating collection of toys.
And of course dont forget to drop by the amazing "Quinta da Regaleira", take a guide visit and ull never forget it :)
