Original Sintra is not a large place to visit but it is very
worth while for its charm and visual links with the past.
It
encompasses two outlying areas named Estefânia and São Pedro. It
may be small but it makes it up in
character and beauty.
As the older part of
Sintra sits on a granite slope it is best seen on foot or by a
horse-drawn carriage. Abounding in history the town is dominated by
the two conical chimneys of the Palácio Nacional da Vila that was the
a summer home of the royal family since the 15th Century. Scattered on
the surrounding hillside are several historical creations openly
showing the diverseness of each original owner’s taste in
architecture. The castle stands high on the
southeast side of the mountain range. Overlooking the village are the
ruined ramparts of the Castelo dos Mouros, a fort dating from the 8th
Century. Within it is an ancient Moorish cistern and the panoramic
view from its walls is impressive.
