Sean – Ireland

the palace was spectacular and had endless rooms each more anazing than the last. the gardens were lovely. tgere were very few people there so the house was peaceful anf the gardens soothing. the coffee shop is currently closed which is a great pity as we were ready for something to eat by the time we completed our tour.

It’s really the best time to go as it’s out of season and from April on it will be more busy. We could explore the rooms at our own pace. Take photos without flash and enjoy the beautiful gardens. It was worth the money although the train station that’s close to the palace and all that area outside of it seems a bit run down and dodgy. So we were extra careful on our way there.

Full description

Take a short trip from Lisbon to discover the National Palace of Queluz and its historical gardens. Escape the hustle of the city, just 12 km from Lisbon, and relax in this picturesque setting. Benefit from a skip-the-line ticket, heading straight in on arrival.

Explore the Palácio de Queluz which was once a hunting lodge, converted in the late 1700s to a royal summer residence.  See the evolution of the Court’s tastes through 18th and 19th centuries, seeing evidence of Baroque, Rococo and Neoclassicism. Wander through the surrounding  queen-of-hearts formal gardens, with oak-lined avenues, fountains and an azulejo-lined canal where the royals went boating.

Discover the complicated family history with a scheming Spanish daughter-in-law and eccentric British visitors. Imagine the splendour of the royals in this palace as you walk through the gilded, mirror-lined Throne Room and Pedro IV’s bedroom where he slept under a circular ceiling, surrounded by Don Quixote murals.

Enjoy a break and a delicious meal in the palace’s vast kitchens, that is now house a palatial restaurant, the elegant Cozinha Velha, where you can feast on original palace recipes such as the steamed Dover sole.
