A Palace with White Chimneys in the Heart of Sintra

Located in the center of Sintra village, the Sintra National Palace is a historic palace that served as the Portuguese royal family's summer residence for many years. Unlike other castles perched on hills, this palace is situated right in the middle of the village, making it easily accessible. Its most distinctive feature is the two massive white conical chimneys rising above the roof, which have become the symbol of the palace. Thanks to its unique appearance, it stands out even from afar and is considered one of the iconic elements of Sintra's landscape.
