    The Sintra National Palace, also known as Palácio da Vila, is one of Portugal's most iconic monuments and the oldest royal palace in the country. Located in the historic center of Sintra, it is easily recognizable by its two large, white, conical chimneys, nearly 33 meters high, visible from many points in the city.

      One of Sintra's highlights. But everything is very crowded, especially Pena Palace.
