Initiation Wells at Quinta da Regaleira

Quinta da Regaleira ⭐⭐⭐is a quinta located near the historic Centre of Sintra, Portugal. It is classified as a World Heritage Site by UNESCO within the "Cultural Landscape of Sintra".


The property consists of a Romantic palace and chapel, and a luxurious park that features lakes, grottoes, wells, benches, fountains, and a vast array of exquisite constructions. The palace was designed by the Italian architect Luigi Manini.

The below photos were taken on 01/02/2023, a sunny day.  It took me about 15 mins waiting on the queue to purchase an entrance ticket.  However, you also need to wait on another line for about 30 mins to enter the Initiation Wells.
