   • Pena Palace. Sintra. Before the great Bavarian fantasy that is Neuschwanstein, there was fairytale Pena just outside Lisbon. It was a dream-come-true for the king, found up on a hill in Sintra, mixing several architectural styles which make it one of Europe’s finest Romantic constructions.

   • Mafra Palace. Mafra. It's one of the world’s biggest palaces, and its construction almost bankrupted the nation at a time when there was no IMF to bail a country out of debt.
