A trip to Lisbon isn’t complete without stopping at Monserrate Palace and Park. Once owned by British industrialist and art collector, Francis Cook, today it is considered one of Portugal’s pride and joy. With an expert guide at the helm, walk through the central atrium of the palace as you take in the beautiful mix of Gothic, Indian, and Moorish architecture. Then, step into the sacred art room and gallery with decorative motifs of flowers and birds. That’s not all. Check out the billiards room and the music room which were once the entertainment hubs of the Cook Family.
