Description ...in the farest kingdom, there was a magical land, lost between mountains and forests.

For many years, this wounderful village sheltered the King, the Queen, and the most wonderful princesses. The sweet scent of the delicacies cooked in the furnaces filled the air like the divine Nectar.

Unlike the other fantasy realms, which disappeared with time or even never existed, Sintra conserved all its magic throughout the centuries, and nowadays you can still taste all the confectionery, visit every castle and appreciate the surrounding Nature that have been enchanting its visitors generation after generation!

This place reminds me a magnificent area in France: Menton.
A city built on a hill, with nice mansions and private gardens you had to dare taking a look at to discover wonders...

Thanks for this flash-back in my youth!

Skimmed through some images of Menton...more than Sintra, it resembles a lot another Portuguese town: Coimbra. Also built upon a hill and by riverside, hometown to one of the oldest European universities, estabilished in 1290  

Thanks for your comment and for telling me of a new beautiful town, Menton, which I didn't know yet!
