That tower is really interesting. I watched the Youtube video last week. I'd like to go there. Great pics.
I have never ever seen anything like it! Only in a fairy-tale book! Sound like a place I would like to visit one day!
There so many awesome spots like this in Sintra ... I think if you go and visit you need more than just one day. Many come as day-trippers from Lisbon.
I love it how they built those little arches on top of the handrails
Amazing design in raw stone, stood the test of time. Moss and ferns growing onto the rocks even makes the buildings look impressive from ageing @for91days
Never heard of this place, very interesting facts and stunning design in buildings and gardens, thank you for sharing your part of the world.
And well worth a visit! Sintra is a beautiful spot not too far from Lisbon.
Was it used as part of a mining operation I wonder?
No but I can imagine that is was some sort of AC for them in the summer time :)

It makes you feel dizzy if you run down the stairs :)

Thank you so much for your kinds words! And It's a pleasure to share it with you.
Ok forget it what I say the other day about Monserrate Palace.... THIS IS THE PRETTIEST PLACE ON EARTH :D I love Regaleira so so so much.
