Dizzying heights of the Castle of the Moors, Sintra, Portugal

  1. Great photo of a phenomenal place. Well worth the journey.

    If I remember right, there are some places where you’re only a slight mistep away from a very long fall over the edge. 😮

  2. How easy is it to go there? There are trains from Lisbon to Sintra, but then again all the points of interest are far from the town, which appears to be down in the valley. The distance of a few hundred meters on the map might become a half-day hike in the mountains, so as a person who never went there, I’d like to know in advance.
