Portugal - Sintra - 2005
This is the old-city of Sintra, viewed from the western wall of the Moorish fort; modern Sintra is further down. Our hotel is the red tile roof, just up the left edge from the bottom-left corner of the picture. The Palacio Nacional de Sintra is of Moorish origins, but greatly expanded and renovated in the late 13th Century. It is the building in the upper center with the two white conical towers that look sort of like KKK hoods. The tour inside was rather less than hoped-for.
