The National Palace of Queluz enchants with its grandeur and the exuberance of its architectural details.

A retreat for writers, Monserrate attracted countless foreign travelers, especially English ones, who extolled its beauty in travel reports and engravings. When Francis Cook, a wealthy 19th-century English industrialist and major art collector, visited the site, he was fascinated. From this passion, a masterpiece of Romanticism was born: the Park and Palace of Monserrate

At the westernmost point of continental Europe, Cabo da Roca offers a unique panoramic view over the immensity of the Atlantic Ocean. The imposing lighthouse, with its tower covered in white tiles and a red balcony, stands out for being one of the oldest in Portugal

9

Boca do Inferno is one of the most emblematic viewpoints in Cascais. The name given to this place is due to its morphology and the impact of the high waves that are felt there in winter. Boca do Inferno would have been an ancient cave, with a gigantic caldera, connected to the sea by an arch, through which the waves force their passage. With unique characteristics, it is a place of leisure, where you can enjoy a divine landscape and magnificent sunsets.

10

Considered the Portuguese Riviera, it is one of the most complete destinations for leisure and rest, sports or trips along the Atlantic.
