sintra

today i took a trip to #sintra with our guide patricia, myank from #india and two lovely families from the #westcoast – the #beautiful colby second from right is the same age as my #daughter 

sintra was enveloped in a delicate #mist and as #magical as the #moon#goddess it is named after ‘The #Pena #Palace and Park, in the Sintra mountains, are the product of the creative genius of King #Fernando II and the epitome of 19th century #Romanticism in #Portugal. Architecturally speaking, they are a mix of #Manueline and #Moorish #architecture. The palace was built so that it could be seen from any point in the park, forest or luxuriant #gardens, with their five hundred plus species of trees from the four corners of the world.’
