Overview

Sintra considered a UNESCO World Heritage Site among so many landscapes, the stunning Quinta da Regaleira is one of the most incredible monuments of the Serra de Sintra. Situated at the end of the historic center of the village, it was built between 1904 and 1910, in the last period of the monarchy. The romantic domains that belonged to the Viscountess of Regaleira were acquired and expanded by Dr. António Augusto Carvalho Monteiro (1848-1920) to found their place of choice. We continue to travel to Cabo da Roca, the westernmost point in Europe, "where the land ends and the sea begins", in the words of Camões.

Quinta da Regaleira
Quinta da Regaleira is one of the most amazing monuments of the Serra de Sintra. Situated at the end of the historic center of the village, it was built between 1904 and 1910, in the last period of the monarchy. The romantic domains that once belonged to the Viscountess of Regaleira were acquired and expanded by Dr. António Augusto Carvalho Monteiro (1848-1920) to found his place of choice. The architecture and art of the palace, chapel and other constructions were scenically conceived in the context of an Edenic garden, emphasizing the predominance of neo-Manueline and Renaissance styles. The garden, a representation of the microcosm, is revealed by the succession of places imbued with magic and mystery. Paradise is materialized in coexistence with an inferius - a Dantesque underground world - to which the neophyte would be led by Ariadne's thread of initiation. With these scenarios, the representation of an initiatory journey, as vera peregrinat mundi, is concretized, through a symbolic garden where we can feel the Harmony of the Spheres and peer into the alignment of an ascesis of consciousness that travels through the great epics. There are glimpses of mythology, Olympus, Virgil, Dante, Camoes, the Templar mission of the Order of Christ, great mystics and thaumaturgists, the enigmas of the Royal Art, the Great Alchemical Work. This stone symphony reveals the poetic and prophetic dimension of a Luso Philosopher's Mansion. Here Heaven and Earth merge into a sensible reality, the same one that presided over the theory of Beauty, Architecture and Music, which the acoustic shell of the Celestial Worlds Terrace allows to propagate to infinity.

Cabo da Roca
Cabo da Roca is the westernmost point of Portugal and Europe. Visitable, not to the extreme but to an area at an altitude of 140 m, this is one of Portugal's best known capes and forms the western end of the Sintra Mountains, precipitating over the Atlantic Ocean.
