توضیحات
Byron described Sintra as the most beautiful place in the world. His image of a "glorious Eden" has come to symbolize the mythical status that this ancient Portuguese hill town has acquired in the European imagination. This story of palaces, castles, and gardens and ancient hermitages and Gothic spires evokes the magic of the land while providing a historical and literary background to this symbol of Portuguese romanticism at home and abroad that served as a sanctuary for writers, poets, and artists.
