Palacio da Pena

El Palacio da Pena hosted the royal portuguese family during summers. It was constructed by an order of Portugese King Fernando II.

Castle towers and view to the ocean

Nowadays, the palace is a museum that can be visited, and it remains as the royal family had left it. The palace is surrounded by astonising gardens and jungle like forrest where you can see the remains of an ancient monastery.
