"Queluz National Palace" Portugal Things to Do Tip by codrutz

Portugal Things to Do: 744 reviews and 1,155 photos

The Palace of Queluz is in the town with the same name, half way between Lisbon and Sintra, very accessible from IC19 motorway (no hilly roads like Sintra).

Interiors are very rich, no wonder Queluz Palace is called "the small Versailles". I was most impressed by the ceilings, the lights, the Ambassadors' room and its ceiling "trompe l'oeil", the statues in the garden and the two big fountains with many beautiful bronze statues.

Review Helpfulness: 3.5 out of 5 stars
