Imagine a place which is calm, surrounded by lush green fields with a nature reserve where deer and wild boar roam at will, and where a king built a convent to fulfil a vow after the queen consort became pregnant. Confused?
Discover Mafra and rid yourself of any doubt. This is one of the oldest towns in Portugal where the Portuguese royal family used to come to hunt through the centuries and where the imposing baroque National Palace, built in the 18th century by King João V, stands out for many miles around. The convent deserves to be seen up close, with the sea in Ericeira in the background and an indefinable magic in the air.
The National Palace of Mafra is unforgettable with the sound of its carillons, the park (Tapada) and its incredible library, considered one of the most beautiful in the world.
