Sintra on the Web

This site is devoted to Sintra, Portugal, my favorite place in Portgual, and one of the most remarkable places I've visited.

In honor of Sintra, I have assembled 370 resources about Sintra. These include a thumbnail gallery of some 225 photographs, and a web directory of 150 links about Sintra. The web directory contains general resources, information on Sintra's sights, tourist services, travelogues and Sintra's storied literary connections. I've also added my own personal photos, including a huge and detailed gallery of photos of the Quinta da Regaleira, the strangest, most enchanting tourist site in Portugal, together with an essay, The Quinta da Regaleira: An Appreciation.

Picture Galleries

I assembled these thumbnail galleries from the photographs of tourists and professional photographers all over the web. Clicking on a thumbnail takes you to their site.

Get Involved!

There must be more. I will list anything relevant. Email me at [email protected].

Add yourself to my Portugal list, and get an update when new material or places are added. You'll never get more than one email per month, I promise!

Thanks for coming!
