It is considered an example of organic architecture, of a set of apparently separate bodies, but which are part of an articulated whole, through patios, stairs, corridors and galleries. It has the largest set of Mudejar tiles in the country.It is dominated by two large twin chimneys that crown the kitchen and constitute the "ex-libris" of Sintra.

Quinta da Regaleira

You can choose to visit or not. Also known as Palácio do Monteiro dos Milhões, a name associated with the nickname of its former owner, António Augusto Carvalho Monteiro. The palace is located on the slopes of the mountains and a short distance from the historic center of Sintra. Carvalho Monteiro, through the lines of the Italian architect Luigi Manini, transforms the 4-hectare farm into a palace surrounded by lush gardens, lakes, caves and enigmatic buildings, places that hide alchemical meanings, such as those evoked by Freemasonry, Templars and Rosicrucians. It models the space in mixed layouts, which evoke Romanesque, Gothic, Renaissance and Manueline architecture. Quinta da Regaleira is a place to feel. It is not enough to tell him about the memory, the landscape, the mysteries. It is necessary to get to know it, contemplate the scenography of the gardens and buildings, admire the Palace, a true philosopher's mansion of alchemical inspiration, walk through the exotic park and feel its spirituality.
