Oh my! It was windy! - as the Palace of Pena stands on the top of a hill in the Sintra Mountains above the town of Sintra,
and on a clear day it can be easily seen from Lisbon and much of its metropolitan area. It is a national monument and constitutes one
of the major expressions of 19th-century Romanticism in the world. The palace is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the Seven Wonders of Portugal.
