Great views
Palmela Castle is located on top of the eponymous mountain, in the Serra de Arrabida. It's a medieval fortress that has been converted into an inn. From the castle, there are great views of the entire region and the pretty village of Palmela, just a kilometre away. It's a small, quiet village of white houses. Even if you're not staying at the hotel, you can still visit the old part of the castle, which dates from 1148, certainly an interesting visit.
