Planning a Portugal holiday
Lisbon rides its hills on yellow trams, with viewpoints over the river at every turn. Sintra's painted Pena Palace sits in the forest above the town, Porto climbs from the Douro riverfront, and upstream the terraced vineyards of the Douro Valley produce the wine the city is named for. In the south, the Algarve's golden cliffs drop into Atlantic coves.
