The Sintra mountains, the "Serra de Sintra", is a granite mountain range of about 10 km in length, which rises abruptly in the wide plain in the north and reaches the mouth of the river Tejo in the south. Its western extension to the Atlantic Ocean is the Cabo da Roca - a headland which is the westernmost point of continental Europe. The Serra de Sintra is home to cultural monuments from a whole range of different eras, from prehistoric times to the present day. Thanks to its unique microclimate, Sintra has some of the most beautiful parks in Portugal, many with a certain romantic touch, and dense green vegetation that gives the region a majestic atmosphere.
