Thematic Tour

We will drive to the ancient residence of the Templars. “If you can imagine the most Rasta Templar castle, this is Tomar” (W. Eco). In Tomar you will visit the Templar castle (XII) and the monastery of the Order of Christ, built and rebuilt over several centuries. You will be able to appreciate the elegance of the Manueline style, because it is here that its ex-libris-amazingly beautiful window of the Capitula of the Monastery is located. Ancient Chapel Charola, XII century, built in the likeness of the Church of the Holy Sepulcher in Jerusalem. One of the best examples of medieval castle and fortification architecture. a unique "Manueline" (it is here that his ex-libris is located - an amazingly beautiful window of the Capitula of the Monastery). The special history of the Knights Templar in Portugal. All this makes the Convento de Cristo a truly unique place! Drive to fabulous city of Sintra, a medieval royal residence that became a favourite vacation spot for the aristocracy in the 18th century. Arrival to Sintra and time for snack (not included) Here you will get acquainted with the mysterious, "esoteric" palace and park ensemble of Quinta da Regaleira (beginning of the 20th century), the secret symbolism of which is still being tried in vain to decipher. Built in the 17th century, the estate rightfully earned the fame of the most mysterious place in the country. A wonderful house-palace and a mysterious garden are the focus of esotericism, ancient mythology and oriental philosophy, occultism, Freemasonry, and many other things that are still shrouded in the mystery of the unknown ... "Quinta de Regaleira" is something special for any traveller.
