Let me guide you through the most important landmark of Coimbra, namely the university founded in the 13th century and combining beauty with knowledge.
At this magisterial institution, knowledge is dressed in incredible beauty.
This Way to the Whole Story ->Nestled amidst lush hills and crowned by fairytale palaces, Sintra is a dream destination bursting with charm and history. In this guide, I’m taking you to the vibrant Pena Palace, painted in bright colors, as well as to other iconic structures like the mysterious Quinta da Regaleira; in Sintra, every corner tells a story! Explore cobblestone streets, indulge in local treats, and let this magical UNESCO World Heritage site amaze you. Adventure awaits!
Another very popular day trip from Lisbon is a short train ride to the very popular beaches of Estoril and Cascais. Albeit not really dreamy, especially on hot summer days, a day in these sophisticated retreats on the shores of the Atlantic Ocean can be the perfect break from Lisbon’s big city life.
If you spend more time in Estoril, you should stay away from the beach and go on a day trip to Sintra. Even by public transportation, this town of palaces is less than an hour away.
