The Pena Palace from the High Cross

It was truly worthed to climb to the High Cross - Cross Alta - the highest point of Sintra (1,736 feet - 529 m) to catch this view of the magnificent Pena Palace!
The wind was so strong (see the trees leaning!), that needed to ask another visitor to hold me not falling while taking the image.
