A 30-minute train ride from Lisbon and we have arrived in Sintra, Portugal. We stayed in Sintra for a day (a stop on our way to Porto). We have listed where we stayed, a nice cafe to stop by, and some sights to see.

One of the most hidden gems, but also a rising star, is Portugal. Our first stop is in Lisbon - a place with a beautiful mix of art and culture. We laid out the top highs and lows of Lisbon, places to eat, places to see, and some good recommendations along the way.
