About the Royal Palace

The entire region of Sintra is considered a UNESCO World Heritage Site and called the Cultural Landscape. This includes The Royal Palace in the center of the old city, Pena Palace on top of the hill, the Moorish Castle on a neighboring hill, and the surrounding gardens.

The Royal Palace is a large Moorish and Gothic structure dominating the small downtown. It is covered in tiles and surrounded by formal gardens and fountains overlooking the old city.

Taking photographs is a huge part of my travel day. Naturally, I use my phone to document the experience, but I also have the professional gear to get images suitable for framing.

Portugal

In March of 2022, I visited Portugal for the first time. My sister’s best friend has relocated to Lisbon, and we were there to celebrate her birthday and see the country. We made a few day trips from Lisbon before heading to Porto. I was particularly taken with the tile work and mosaic sidewalks. March is a perfect time to visit! Enjoy my Portugal Collection.

Portugal is full of old-world charm with palaces, cathedrals, and Moorish ruins. The winding streets are lined with limestone sidewalks with intricate stone mosaic patterns (or calçada) and dotted with buildings covered in blue tiles (or ajules).
