Assalamualaikum and Ola!
Balik daripada Cabo da Roca tu, kami tunggu bus line hijau pulak untuk ke destinasi terakhir kami dekat Sintra ni. Quinta da Regaleira.
Quinta da Regaleira is a quinta located near the historic center of Sintra, Portugal. It is classified as a World Heritage Site by UNESCO within the "Cultural Landscape of Sintra". Along with the other palaces in the area such as the Quinta do Relógio, Pena, Monserrate and Seteais palaces, it is considered one of the principal tourist attractions of Sintra. The property consists of a romantic palace and chapel, and a luxurious park that features lakes, grottoes, wells, benches, fountains, and a vast array of exquisite constructions. The palace is also known as "The Palace of Monteiro the Millionaire", which is based on the nickname of its best known former owner, António Augusto Carvalho Monteiro. The palace was designed by the italian architect Luigi Manini.
Bas akan berhenti dekat tepi pintu Exit, nak masuk kena menapak sikit naik bukit kena lalu belakang kawasan bangunan Istana ni
Kawasan memang luas, dan besaq. Disebabkan kami sampai sini dah penghujung waktu cerah kan, jadi kami terus terjah ke kawasan yang paling wajib masuk
Ada beberapa kawasan padang kita akan lalu
Sampai sudah. Daripada luar tempat dia nampak macam binaan batu apa benda laaa ada pintu kecik ni
Masuk je nampak tangga pusing ke bawah
Tunduk kebawah, haaaa..inilah binaan yang diberikan nama
The Initiation Wells (AKA initiatic wells or inverted towers) are two wells on the property that better resemble underground towers lined with stairs. These wells never served as water sources. Instead, they were used for ceremonial purposes that included Tarot initiation rites. The tunnels described above connect these wells to one another, in addition to various caves and other monuments located around the park. Of the two wells, the larger one contains a 27-meter spiral staircase with several small landings. The spacing of these landings, combined with the number of steps in the stairs, are linked to Tarot mysticism. The smaller well contains straight stairs that connect a series of ring-shaped floors to one another.[2] This well is also called the 'Unfinished Well'.
Ramai tak ramai, kira macam kena ada kegigihan sikit la nak ambik gambar dekat sini tanpa ada ahli jemaah baru
Ini view bila pandang ke atas
Akhirnya berjaya la juga gambar tanpa pertambahan ahli jemaah
Ini pulak perigi lagi satu, lebih kecik daripada yang mula-mula kami masuk
Lepas tu kita explore kawasan park dia pulak. Mengingatkan memori dekat Park Guel di Barcelona hasil Arkitek Gaudi betul
Jom kita menuju ke Istana pula.
The Regaleira Palace (Portuguese: Palácio da Regaleira) bears the same name as the entire estate. The structure's façade is characterized by exuberantly Gothic pinnacles, gargoyles, capitals, and an impressive octagonal tower.The palace contains five floors (a ground floor, three upper floors, and a basement). The ground floor consists of a series of hallways that all connect the living room, dining room, billiards room, balcony, some smaller rooms, and several stairways. In turn, the first upper floor contains bedrooms and a dressing room. The second upper floor contains Carvalho Monteiro's office, and the bedrooms of female servants. The third upper floor contains the ironing room and a smaller room with access to a terrace. Finally, the basement contains the male servants' bedrooms, the kitchen (which featured an elevator for lifting food to the ground floor), and storage rooms.
Ok dah jom balik ke Lisbon balik jom
Sebenarnya kami nak naik bus, tapi bila tunggu punya tunggu bus tak muncul tiba. Lepas tu ambik keputusan jalan kaki lah. Boleh kita lalu kawasan town Sintra yang kaki tak sempat nak menjelajah waktu cerah tadi
Ini dah on the way ke station keretapi Sintra daripada bandar
Rezeki kami bila sampai station keretapi, ada dah train dok tunggu. Terus naik. Tapi agak ramai orang kena jalan sampai ke gerabak hujung baru dapat tempat duduk. Ini station Rossio dekat Lisbon waktu kami sampai balik daripada Sintra
Inilah train yang kami naik untuk balik ke Lisbon semula
Sebab malam last dekat Lisbon, sebelum balik apartment kita jalan-jalan waktu malam terakhir dekat sini
Babai Lisbon, ada rezeki kita jumpa lain nanti. Hello Porto!
