Standing in the center of Sintra, this medieval palace's origins date back to the 9th century when the Moorish governors built their palatial residence on this site.
Its gigantic conical chimneys (33m-high) are the town's icons, added in the 14th century when it became a royal residence for King João I (the father of Prince Henry the Navigator).
Its most striking room is the hexagonal Sala dos Brasões, lined with extraordinary tile panels.
