Virgin’s Grotto: Quinta da Regaleira is not your average Castle. In a location that is full of them, Quinta da Regaleira symbolizes a lot more than just a protection plan. Virgin’s Grotto is one of the many caves of the castle, symbolizing hell, in contrast to the gardens that symbolize heaven. Allow Clio Muse to be your faithful guide as you waltz through the castle giving you all the special insight only she knows.
Unfinished Well: Have you ever seen wells built like… towers? Quinta da Regaleira is more than happy to introduce you to them. The second well of the Castle, this one holds a special place in the hearts of the researchers as it’s left unfinished. Clio Muse is more than happy to help you understand the dynamics behind its location and purpose as well as the reasons it’s left unfinished.
Orient’s Grotto: Yet another day at the Quinta da Regaleira, yet another cave to explore. This is not the first, and certainly not the last cave around here.
