Stretching along the mountain ridge, this medieval stronghold offers panoramic views over Sintra, the Atlantic Ocean, and the dense forests below. As you walk along its ancient stone walls and towers, you will learn about the Moorish presence in Portugal and the strategic role this castle once played in protecting the region.
