Plan your visit

Here you can find all the information you need to plan your visit to the parks and monuments of Sintra in detail.

 

Please take into consideration that road traffic in Sintra has recently undergone changes, with unauthorized access to the Moorish Castle and the Park and Palace of Pena for private vehicles and circulation in the historic center limited to residents. We recommend that you prepare ahead your visit to Sintra, informing yourself about road circulation and access by public transport. Please see the our "How to get there".

 

We also recommend that you keep in mind that the visit to the Pena National Palace is only possible with a time slot reservation. See the corresponding section below for more information.
