masterpiece of Cistercian art. It was founded in the 12th century as a

St. Bernard of Clairvaux. The building of the church began with the apse,
as was the normal practice at that time, and its three naves all of the same
height, its two-nave transept and deambulatory form a whole particularlyimpressive because of its simplicity, grandeur and austerity.Find out more at www.visitportugal.com

Palcio da Pena, Sintra Rui Cunha
In the 19th century, Sintra was one of the first places in Europe where
romantic architecture was to be tried out. The king Fernando, married
to the queen Maria II, transformed the ruins of a monastery into a castle,
brilliantly combining Gothic, Islamic and Renaissance features, surrounded
by a park of exuberant and exotic vegetation, in keeping with the taste
of that time. This model was followed in other palaces built in the Serrade Sintra and served as an inspiration in other European landscapes.Find out more at www.visitportugal.com

Templo Romano, vora Jos Manuel
With its origins dating back to Roman times, vora had its golden age in
the 15th century, when it became the residence of the kings of Portugal. Its
unique character derives from its white limewashed houses, with their tiled
interior decorations and wrought-iron balconies, making the city as a whole
representative of a distinct historical period (16th to 18th centuries). Its
monuments had a decisive influence on the Portuguese architecture that wasintroduced into Brazil.Find out more at www.visitportugal.com

Angra do Herosmo, Terceira Arquivo Turismo de Portugal

been a mandatory port of call for vessels sailing between Europe and other

Vinha da Ilha do Pico Antnio S
On the island of Pico, you will find a remarkable example of the transformation
of an apparently unproductive and rocky volcanic terrain into an extraordinary
landscape of vineyards. The hillsides sloping down to the sea are marked by
a grid of black stone walls separating the vines, testifying to the hard work
of generations ofsmall farmers who successfully overcame a hostile climateto create their own distinctive way of life and produce a wine of great quality.Find out more at www.visitportugal.com

Floresta Laurissilva Arquivo Turismo de Portugal
On the islands north-facing slopes, covering an area of 15 thousand hectares
(equivalent to 20% of its surface), Madeiras primary laurel forest has
successfully survived, withstanding five centuries of human settlement of the
