Citorah says

From Pena, walk down to Quinta da Regaleira (€15 entry, the initiation well is the only piece of Sintra that nobody manages to make look ordinary in a photograph) or take the 434 to the Moorish Castle ramparts.

    Sintra

    Citorah says Sintra is worth it once. Pena Palace from the inside is not — the park, Regaleira's well, and the Moorish Castle ramparts beat the interior on every measure except "I want to see the yellow-and-red bit from the postcard". Buy the park-only ticket if you're tight on time.
