After breakfast, we took a long stroll along the road to the Historic Centre of Sintra. It was nice and cool at about 20 degrees. It felt like Genting actually. Tranquil with cool, fresh air. The good thing about this walk was that there’s no slope. Don’t need to climb up or descend down any slopes. It was a little longer but we tried the other route on the return trip, we’d take this route all day long.

The historic center of Sintra is very nice to visit with the small pittoresk streets, but the reason to cone to Sintra is not the historic center, it’s the castles/palaces. But if you come to Sintra to visit the castles, the historic center is a very nice bonus. For example to have a meal at the Sintra Terrace.

The center of Sintra is a historic site that is now a museum. Visitors used this place as a meeting point for visitors. Regardless, this general area has many beautiful buildings, shopping streets, and cafes. Overall, a good experience as a starting point to visit Sintra.

Beautiful place with many castles and forest with beautiful old trees and special. Just way too crowded to really enjoy. Even in low season. And you have to pay for everything. Way too many cars, tuktuks and busses. People littler in the forest. No bins provided along the hikes. And there are still horse carriages allowed, even though the horses are clearly suffering. Many corporate businesses, barely locals. Historic part is beautiful, the rest like any other town.
