TODAY'S PLAN:
1. Palácio da Pena
2. Bar do Fundo
3. Miradouro da Praia do Carneiro
4. Casa Piriquita
5. Hotel Tivoli Palácio de Seteais
6. Sintra's National Palace
7. Cabo da Roca
In today’s video, we visited the mysterious and beautiful Sintra.
First, we went to Pena’s Castle (Palácio da Pena), we lost the bus but we took a Tuk Tuk instead, which was so much fun, we really recommend it! (1€ more expensive than the bus but REALLY worth it, and with our current situation it’s so much better being on open-air).
The gardens of Palácio da Pena are huge, so we walked a lot, everything was foggy but it gives the “Sintra Charm”. We walked (or almost hiked) until the highest point of the park, Cruz Alta (High Cross) where we couldn’t see much because of all the fog but we could fly the drone when small sun rays appeared (luckily). We finally arrived at Palácio da Pena, it was just amazing with all the colors and different exotic architectural styles of the time (XIX Century). We called our Tuk Tuk driver again, who was very kind. We asked for his phone number in order to go back to our car (it is forbidden to arrive with your own car to the palaces). Once we were there, we went to a restaurant that Maria went to and she really liked (20 min. by car from the Vila) and we had a great lunch by the beach. We had a shrimps risotto (risotto de camarões) and octopus with potatoes (polvo à lagareiro), of course, accompanied by 2 fresh imperiais (draft beers).
After having lunch, it was time for desserts! We stopped by Miradouro da Praia do Caneiro on our way to the Vila, very dramatic but beautiful cliffs. Then, we went to the historical center to Piriquita’s Pastries Shop to get Travesseiros and Queijadas, the famous desserts of Sintra, we preferred the Travesseiros… made of cream, eggs, and sugar… So good…
We explored the town, the architecture is beautiful there, the colorful buildings, the very green trees, and the palaces are just amazing, it has its own weather because of its mountain range that it is really close to the Atlantic Ocean.
Our last stop, was the Westernmost Point of Europe, Cabo da Roca. Everything was foggy, lots of wind, not a good scene. BUT, we waited 15 minutes and the sun started to shine and we were finally able to see the spectacular views, and to fly the drone to show you ;)
Hope that you guys enjoyed our day in Sintra,

We’re Maria and Du, we met shooting a commercial in Lisbon (Maria’s city) in 2018.
We started a distance relationship flying twice a month (Lisbon - Barcelona) and after a few months of that, we finally moved in together in Barcelona, where Du was born and raised (his parents are from South Korea).
We started our KZbin channel because we love traveling, we always enjoy our trips and we wanted to keep our memories through nice videos, now we can share them with you.
Our final goal would be traveling full-time and someday, helping people around the world doing something good.

Adoro o facto que existe alguém Português a mostrar o quanto Portugal é lindo para o KZbin. Assim mais gente pode ver, se interessar e querer visitar o nosso lindo país.

Love this video! The scenery, the palace and castle are well worth seeing, all being fantastic views. The dramatic coastline at 8:25 and end of the video are very impressive, reminding me of a similar scene in Big Sur of Northern California where I live. The grilled octopus looks delicious! I don’t know this part of Europe and thus have no ideas of where to go next, but good luck on the next part of your trip! Well done!

Another great video. Sintra must not be missed. My favourite spot in Sintra is Quinta da Regaleira, and all the tunnels that lead to and from the Initiation Wells. Obrigada ~

[@maria_dumin]

Thank you so much 🥰 Quinta da Regaleira it’s amazing I’ll take Du other day, unfortunately we didn’t had time 😔

That fog forest looks like an rpg game place. Trying food is fun.

Spectacular!

Thank you!

[@CafeHeavenly]

Another great video. Excellent editing which takes time, I know. One VERY positive thing is that you show the words you are speaking so I don't have to rely on 'CC' which misses many important words. I've requested this from other Bloggers, but nothing yet! As I'm thinking of purchasing a drone, would you share the brand and model of the one you use? I'm planning to soon retire part time in Portugal, so I've watched most of the Portugal blogs for the last few months. You are becoming my favorite and you've just now done only 2 blogs! See you nextFriday. Steve

[@maria_dumin]

Happy for your comment! Sure, our drone is the DJI Mavic Air 2, it’s great. Thank you so much for your kind words 😊

Adorei os vossos vídeos e vcs são adoráveis 😁 Já pensaram em descobrir o Minho e a Galiza ? Temos um passado em comum e uma história riquíssima... há a língua parrilhada, a cultura celta... seria algo diferente do q se vê em canais de viagens em Portugal e uma oportunidade de o Du conhecer uma parte da nossa história e até um pouco de uma língua quase esquecida-o galego- mas q tb faz parte de Espanha. Keep enjoying everything you do 🥰

[@maria_dumin]

Ficamos muito contentes que tenha gostado! O Minha está sem duvida na lista, começámos pelo centro de Portugal mas pouco a pouco vamos indo mais a norte ou a sul! A Galiza também seria muito interessante! Muito obrigada pelas sugestões! 🥰🥰
