Itinerary and highlights
Sintra is a tourist town at the foot of the Sintra mountains, in Portugal, close to the capital, Lisbon. For a long time as a royal sanctuary, its wooded land is studded with farms and palaces in pastel colors. The National Palace of Sintra, of Moorish and Manueline style, is distinguished by the two stunning identical chimneys and the elaborate tiles. The 19th century Pena National Palace, at the top of the hill, is known for its extravagant design and stunning views.
The Pena National Palace, referred to only as Pena Palace or Pena Castle, is located in the village of Sintra, in the municipality of Sintra, in the district of Lisbon, in Portugal.
The bakery that would later be known as Piriquita was founded in 1862, some 160 years ago.
The name Piriquita originated from the nickname that King D. Carlos I gave to Constância Gomes, based on his short stature. It was King D. Carlos I who encouraged the couple to prepare the famous Queijadas, a sweet that they enjoyed during their summers in Sintra. Success was immediate and the bakery quickly became a pastry shop.
The National Palace of Queluz, also known as Palácio de Queluz and Palácio Real de Queluz, is an 18th century palace located in Queluz, a city in the municipality of Sintra, in the district of Lisbon.
