Park and National Palace of Pena - The Palacio Nacional da Pena is one of the finest tourist attractions in Portugal and exemplifies the 19th century Romanticism style of architecture. The palace is a hedonistic mix of vividly painted terraces, decorative battlements and mythological statues, all of which stand at stark contrast to the lush greens of the Parque de Pena forest.
The interior of the Pena Palace is equally as fascinating, being restored to reflect the decor in 1910, when the Portuguese nobility fled to Brazil to escape the revolution. Surrounding the Pena Palace are forested grounds, which continue the design ideals of Romanticism, with hidden pathways, mystical ornaments and stunning vistas.

Our appreciation goes out to Dr. Asad Mohsin, an Associate Professor at the University of Waikato in New Zealand, for launching a Halal Tour of Sintra for Muslim tourists in Portugal. Once named Al-Garb Al-Andalus, Portugal spent over half a millennium under Islamic influence. Start your morning with a trip to Sintra, otherwise known as Moon Hill, where you’ll explore the Pena Palace and the bewitching Castle of the Moors, both of which are proud bearers of the World Heritage Site designation. Constructed between the 8th and 9th centuries and expanded after the reconquest, these sites bear living testimony to Islam’s illustrious history in the region. Visit Sintra’s charming old town and indulge in a delightful halal lunch featuring tantalizing kebabs, falafels, and other delights. Afterwards, embark on a visit to the Quinta da Regaleira, a fanciful palace with Gothic designs whose garden, adorned with thought-provoking statues, pools and grottos, is nothing short of phenomenal. Lastly, position yourself at Portugal’s western extremity at Cabo da Roca. You also get the added benefits of free pick-up from your accommodation, a driver/guide, meals, and inclusive tickets with your private tour.
