Palacio Nacional de Mafra
The Palace of Mafra is a magnificent Baroque palace located in the town of Mafra, Portugal, about 35 kilometers northwest of Lisbon. It was built in the 18th century during the reign of King João V, who wanted to fulfill a vow to build a grand palace and monastery if his wife, Queen Maria Anna, gave him an heir to the throne. Construction of the palace began in 1717 and took nearly 13 years to complete. It was designed by the German architect Johann Friedrich Ludwig, who was inspired by the grandeur of the Palace of Versailles in France. The palace is enormous, with over 1,200 rooms, 4 courtyards, and a grand basilica, making it one of the largest palaces in Europe.
Aldeia Museu Jose Franco
At the village of Sobreiro, 4km northwest of Mafra (take any Ericeira-bound bus), sculptor José Franco has created an enchanting miniature, vaguely surreal craft village of windmills, watermills and traditional shops. Kids love it here; as do some adults, especially when they discover the rustic adega (winery) serving red wine and snacks.
