Your first stop is the out-of-this-world Quinta da Regaliera, a spectacular 19th-century manor. With Gothic, Egyptian, Moorish, and Renaissance features interwoven in its design, the palace is a truly special sight to behold and feels like something out of a dark fantasy book. But the true gem is its lavish gardens and the famous Initiation Well, spiraling beneath the Earth for eight stores and connected to a secret waterfall by an underground tunnel.

Next, you stop by the Pena Palace, a calling card of Sintra and a place with a very different energy than Quinta da Regaliera. Full of vibrant colors, Pena Castle looks absolutely magical, like it belongs in a Disney movie, and is surely a must-visit place during any Lisbon vacation.
