#Castle The Quinta da Regaleira used to be a private estate of a wealthy Portuguese manor. The main part is the Quinta da Regaleira and the Quinta da Regaleira. Its biggest feature is the mysterious symbology, the strange spiral well, and the small monster decorations, which are rare in Europe. What impressed me most was the 27-meter-deep Initiation Well (Poço Iniciático), which has 9 layers, symbolizing Dante's nine-fold cycle of heaven, hell, and purgatory. There are also hidden underground cave routes, some of which are natural caves and some are artificially carved. There are various small waterfalls and moss-covered stone steps in between. It is very interesting and worth the trip! 🎯Quinta da Regaleira 10:00-18:00, closed on January 1, December 24-25, and December 31 It is recommended to arrange a one-day trip with the Pena Palace. Sintra attractions are not far away. After visiting the Pena Palace, you can have a leisurely lunch and walk to it #100 ways to travel #Sintra #Spiral staircase #Underground cave #Portugal travel #Portugal castle #World Heritage

A trip to Sintra wouldn’t be complete without seeing Quinta da Regaleira, one of the most stunning estates recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site within the "Cultural Landscape of Sintra." This neo-gothic mansion was designed and constructed in the late 1800s. The estate’s main attractions include its enchanting gardens and the iconic initiation well. Though called a well, it isn’t actually a water source but rather an underground tower used for ceremonial purposes. The well features a 27-meter spiral staircase, approximately six stories high, and at its base, there are two main tunnels, one leading out to the garden. Walking down the well and through the tunnels felt like a surreal and magical experience! #citydaytours #100WaysofTravel #europetrip #portugal #sintra

#newyearadventure Sintra is a UNESCO world heritage site in Portugal famed for its historic palaces and castles. It is about 50 minutes from Lisbon by train so you can easily make a day trip to Sintra while you're in Lisbon. We visited Pena Palace, a fairytale palace built in 19th century, and Quinta da Regaleira, a neo-gothic mansion with the iconic initiation well. We had lunch in Sintra town centre and thereafter travelled to Cabo da Roca - the westernmost point of mainland Europe. It may be cheaper to go from one location to another by Uber or other ride hiring platforms instead of hiring tour guides touting outside Sintra train station. The tour guide we hired charged us 35 euros per pax by fetching us from point A to point B. #portugal #sintra #lisbon #palace #mansion #unesco #penapalace #regaleira #cabodaroca

◆Access └ 20 minutes walk from Sintra Station Although it is a tourist spot called a palace, the most impressive thing is the unique garden. In particular, the spiral staircase leading to the underground labyrinth makes you feel like you are in another world whether you look down from above or up from below. However, there are long lines at both the ticket booth and the entrance to the underground labyrinth inside the palace. Tickets can be purchased online, so we recommend making arrangements in advance. #historical ruins #breathtaking views
