5 reviews of Queluz National Palace

A disappointing palace

Arriving to Queluz thinking you are getting to a nice village where there is a big palace is a big mistake. The city of Queluz is an architectural aberration constructed between Sintra and Lisbon where there is no urban setting that gives charm or distinction, but that's my opinion. When you get to the palace you are surprised because the facade is lovely, facing the Garden of Malta, but the outside looks like a military building , not a royal palace. It was constructed in the 18th century at the behest of Peter III, where initially the cottage was about Marquis recognized at the time, and was constructed for use as the 2nd summer residence of the royal house.
