Enjoy the hot August in cool Sintra with activities for the whole family
For centuries, Sintra, known as ‘the place where winter spends the summer’, was the choice of the Royal Family and the nobility to escape the scorching heat of the capital.
To spend the hottest season of the year, they built palaces and planted gardens, where, today, Parques de Sintra offers a diverse programme so that families today, just like those of the past, can enjoy summer to the fullest.
‘An Adventure at the Pena Palace’, staged visits to the Chalet of the Countess of Edla and treasure hunts in the Pena and Monserrate Parks are some of the experiences to enjoy this summer.
