Once upon a time, there was a German youth who had a deep passion for art. He was enamored with medieval romantic tales and legends, and he embarked on a mission to bring them to life. Interestingly enough, he happened to be the King of Portugal! Thus, from one individual's dream, the Pena Palace emerged, a structure straight out of fairy tales.

This extraordinary building is a captivating fusion of grand Oriental and Western architectural styles, constructed on the grounds of a former monastery.
