Pena Palace is one of those buildings that can be labelled as truly magnificent. A cacophony of architectural inspiration coupled with idealic panoramas of the Portuguese countryside and sea. The castle is located on top of a volcanic mountain in Sintra, Portugal.
How many different architectural styles can you spot? Influence is drawn from the Moors, Christians and Buddhism. Each style works in harmony with each other and the result presents visitors with endless gasps of surprise, intrigue and wonderment.
