Sintra

Fog welcomed us today and never quite cleared for our tour to Sintra. So, I really didn't have a clear view of Palace of Pena or Bister Castle.

But our main tour was of Quinta de Regaliera. One of the highlights of Quinta de Regaliera is undoubtedly the initiation well that is shrouded in myth and legend. 139 steps with a network of tunnels to a waterfall and small pond.
Then on to the gardens which at this time of year are not at their best.
The last stop was the palace filled with ornate & fascinating artifacts.
On returning to Lisbon took a leisurely stroll to the water front.
Evening dinner was most enjoyable at an outdoor restaurant. Loads of people out for Saturday evening.Leia mais
