Castelo de São Jorge is an absolutely beautiful and historic castle that offers some of the most breathtaking views of Lisbon. Walking along the ancient castle walls and exploring its rich history was an unforgettable experience. The views of the red rooftops, Alfama, and the Tagus River are simply spectacular. We loved all the peacocks that roam the castle as well! A perfect place to take photos, learn about Portugal’s history, and enjoy the beauty of Lisbon. Highly recommend visiting this incredible landmark — definitely one of the highlights of our trip to Portugal!

Easy to buy tickets and find entrance! We absolutely loved visiting São Jorge Castle! The views over Lisbon were incredible and honestly worth the visit alone. We had so much fun walking around the castle walls, exploring the different areas, and taking in all of the history. It was one of those places that really made us feel like we were experiencing Lisbon rather than just sightseeing. Such a beautiful spot and definitely one of the highlights of our trip!

The Moorish Castle is a military fortress built by the Moors during their rule of Portugal. Today, it is decorated with all the flags Portugal has ever had, which I thought was a very special touch. It is the northernmost point in the city, and the view from up there is spectacular—there is no better view of Sintra than the one from the castle. However, be prepared to climb a lot of stairs, and wear sneakers and comfortable clothes.

Great experience at the castle, great views from the top and lots of walking to do to help get your steps in 😀 we got a taxi up from the town as it was quite a bit away if we had walked and VERY steep! Headout was easy to use to book tickets and they came through straight away. Would use again ☺️

How grandiose the Moorish construction was for its time, as well as the foresight to build a fortress to ensure the protection of the area, which nevertheless was not enough to prevent its recapture by the Portuguese.

Everything went smoothly from entry to exploring the Moorish Castle. It wasn’t overly crowded during our visit, so there was plenty of space to walk around, explore at our own pace, and enjoy the views without feeling rushed. The whole experience was easy and well organized. Definitely worth visiting while in Sintra!

San Jorge offers beautiful scenery and a sweeping view of all of Lisbon. Lisbon Cathedral is just like any other cathedral. Personally, it didn't really impress me that much.
