Top neighborhoods in Sintra

Pena National Palace, Sintra, Portugal

São Pedro de Penaferrim

São Pedro de Penaferrim invites you into a fairy tale world where Pena Palace's rainbow towers peek through morning mist. Ancient stones of the Moorish Castle whisper stories of long ago while peacocks strut through the emerald expanse of Pena Park. Hiking trails wind through the Sintra-Cascais Natural Park, offering breathtaking views of Portugal's coastline stretching toward the horizon. Dining options are limited within the neighborhood, so plan to eat in central Sintra town. Accommodations range from luxury historic estates to charming guesthouses nestled in the hills. The steep terrain challenges walkability, so consider the tourist buses that connect major attractions for easier exploration.

If you visit Sintra, Portugal, be sure to visit Palacio Pena. The walk leading up to the palace is just stunning.

São Martinho

São Martinho feels like stepping into a fairytale with its mystical Quinta da Regaleira, where Gothic towers rise above ancient oaks and spiral staircases lead to underground grottos. Sintra's UNESCO-listed palaces peek through emerald gardens while cobblestone paths wind past centuries-old fountains. The nearby Sintra Mountains offer hiking trails with breathtaking views that history-loving travelers can't get enough of. Traditional Portuguese tavernas serve hearty regional dishes throughout the neighborhood. Most visitors arrive via taxi as public buses run limited schedules. Historic quintas converted to boutique hotels dominate the accommodation scene, offering romantic settings with period furnishings and manicured gardens.

You'll wake to morning mist and the distant sounds of church bells while having easy access to Sintra's UNESCO palaces and the lush trails of Sintra-Cascais Natural Park. The neighborhood has minimal dining options, with just a few family-run tascas serving traditional Portuguese fare. Most visitors stay in converted homes or charming quintas with gardens, using this tranquil base to explore. A car is recommended as public transport is limited and the terrain is steep.
