Sintra National Palace – the summer palace of the Portuguese royal family

#July Travel Support Fund The National Palace of Sintra is a historic royal palace located in the heart of the Portuguese town of Sintra. With its distinctive exterior featuring two white conical chimneys, the palace was used as a summer residence by Portuguese kings from the Middle Ages to the early modern period. Its origins date back to the Moorish fortress, and it was expanded and renovated in the 15th century under the direction of João I and Manuel I. The interior of the palace features Portuguese azulejo tile decorations and a mixture of various architectural styles (Gothic, Mudéjar, Manueline, etc.), giving it high historical and artistic value. It is currently operated as a museum and is one of the key sites of the Sintra Cultural Landscape, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. #Portugal #PortugalEmotionalTravel
