One of the places I liked most in Portugal was Sintra:
even as we had only time to see one palace (there are two of them) and not to some very special houses, I was impressed by the landscape, nor far from Lisboa but very different.
We visited the Palacio Nacional de Sintra and enjoyed a very nice sunday morning there, with some coffee galao (with milk like cappuccino) and continued afterwards towards Cascais.
Here are some pictures from the Palacio Nacional:
