24/05/09 ~06~2252km~ Sintra + Cabo da Roca + Lisboa



At down (if you believe it), we walked a bit around the town and went for visiting the National Palace. Not that nice outside, but really impressive inside, covered by very colorful tiles, Portugese style.



And when leaving Sintra: Pena, at last!!! (1st picture)





We then took the road to Cabo da Roca, the westest part of continental Europe, as many other tourists did... (2nd picture). Good weather, beautiful ocean, we didn't come for nothing!




But no time to lose, let's go to Lisboa, Portugal's capital! A big city, all in one way driving with an apparently not completely updated GPS, that I believe having upseted a couple of times by not following this arrogant woman believing she knows everything about navigating around!!!
Anyway, I won and we did find our way and a place to park. :-) Like a postcard, trams troughout the town (3rd picture), seems to be a nice place to live in.




Now, direction Evora, where we'll spend the night...

Francais a venir

辛特拉(Sintra)-路卡岬 Coba da Roca-里斯本( Lisboa)-艾弗拉 (Evora) (葡)

一早,我們來到王宮,不知什麼原因,那天居然開放免費參觀!還好昨天沒有堅持在關門前半小時進去參觀!
葡萄牙因為有被摩爾人(回教徒)統一的歷史,隨處都可看到花磚壁畫的裝飾,色彩繁多、令人嘆為觀止。隨後,我們在前往歐洲大陸最西端路卡岬的路上,終於遠遠看到潘納宮,彌補心中小小的遺憾!
里斯本,雖然是葡萄牙首都,卻沒有馬德里的緊迫,雖然因為行程緊迫,我們還是參觀了傑洛尼莫斯修道院、拍了幾處重點景點。跨越了里斯本的大橋後,傍晚抵達期待已久的艾弗拉。
