The views of the Palace, from the top of the Serra de Sintra, are unmissable and you can see why the royal family used the building as a home very often especially during the reign of Carlos I of Portugal.

The consort king adopted Portuguese architectural and decorative forms for the palace, in the revivalist style (neo-gothic, neo-manueline, neo-islamic, neo-renaissance) and in the surroundings he decided to make a magnificent English park, with the most varied tree species exotic.

The Pena Palace is a work of art, which is why it has many unique patterns not found in any palace!
