Palacio Nacional (National Palace) in the city of Sintra. This palace is famous for its enormous chimneys, which have become the best known symbol of the town of Sintra. Its origins date back to the Arabian Occupation. It fell into the hands of the Christians in the XII century. From that time onwards, it went through many transformations, most significantly during the reign of King Manuel I. This is an enormous palace which was at various times extended and built over, resulting in a fascinating mixture of styles. Located within easy reach of Lisbon in a pleasant environment, it was one of the favourite residences of the Portuguese royal family from the Middle Ages onwards.

dear Mikolaj Cava,
simple but very well designed windows.
frame curve is graceful and the central column is noble, then the composition of twin windows is refined.
of course your photo space matches well this window style. the sky, the roofs and the wall are nicely cropping in this image.
a little oriental feeling is wonderful.
thank you,
Akihisa
