Скачать или смотреть Day Trip to Sintra and Cascais - Four Seasons Hotel Ritz Lisbon

GREEN AND BLUE, MOUNTAINS AND SEA...

The perfect day trip from early spring through to late autumn.

Sintra is all you’ve read and more. It take less than an hour from Lisbon to travel back to the age of imperial Portugal and Europe’s original epicenter of Romantic architecture. Portuguese aristocrats have followed their Royals here since the 14th century. And it’s not hard to see why as you drive the region’s winding roads. Float away on the dreamy UNESCO World Heritage imagery revealed before you: sprawling baroque palaces amidst box hedges and fountains; towered and turreted summer residences shaded by magnificent formal gardens; hilltop princess-palaces silhouetted pink, yellow and red against a turquoise sky….

While Cascais, on the Coast, perhaps one of Lisbon’s most underrated enclaves, melds the laidback lifestyle of the American East Coast with European refinement and sophistication. It’s leisurely and casual yet uniquely chic – the elegant choice for well-dressed families seeking a more high-end beach retreat. Try Santini Gelati Fini – favourite of King Juan Carlos 1 of Spain.

Finally, don’t miss Cape Roca—’where the land ends and the sea begins’ according to famous Portuguese poet Luís de Camões—marks Europe’s most westerly point. Head to the lighthouse for the best views. Don’t forget to collect your commemorative certificate: not everyone gets this close to the edge…
