About Set up on the Mountain of Sintra or Mons Lunae, the name chosen by the Romans who were enchanted with the Mountain and its settlement. Thus, the village was named Cyntia (the word used to refer to the moon according to worshipping rituals) from which Sintra derives.

The Castle was founded or rebuilt by the Moors and was later conquered by King Afonso Henriques.

From the XVth century onwards the castle was forgotten and when in ruins it was granted to King Fernando II (XIXth century) who had it rebuilt.

That is a great place for good photos. Becareful Mário. I have a bad experience there few years ago I was roubed in photographic equipment in about 400 mil escudos. All that in front of my eyes!!! Never went back there ever since and I never will

What a beautiful place! Very good proportion of this scene (the bulwark vs. the background). Well done.

Such wonderful composition! Feels so high and the view is beautiful! Light is a little bit strong in the foreground but I think this is excellent! Both interesting and wonderful!
