Around Lisbon
Azenhas Do Mar – the village on the edge of the cliff
The white town of Azenhas do Mar offers one of Portugal's most delicious beaches and languid views of ocean waves and cliffs.

Around Lisbon there are plenty of cities and experiences for a day trip from the big city. Don't miss Sintra - one day is not enough here to experience everything!
The white town of Azenhas do Mar offers one of Portugal's most delicious beaches and languid views of ocean waves and cliffs.
There was basically only one 'must see' place in Portugal for me - Palácio da Pena in Sintra. We would definitely go there first! But, it doesn't always turn out the way you imagined when you travel... For better or for worse 🙂
What we liked about staying at the Intercontinental Lisbon or the story of how SL Benifica made me sleep badly.
In the middle of the forest near Sintra, lie the ruins of the old monastery Convento dos Capuchos. Abandoned and overgrown, it still shows the extremely simple life that the monks here lived.
I am standing at the end of the world - Cabo da Roca. Portugal's westernmost place. Here we put on our backpacks and hiked along the coast, among steep cliffs, sea air and turquoise water.
