The Pena Palace, an exquisitely designed and constructed ornament adorning an entire mountain top. Again...we were awestruck at the design and man-years that produced this work of art. The left-hand photo shows the view from a balcony outside the Telescope Room containing multiple forms of star-gazing and distance-viewing instruments. The right-hand photo captures a menacing creature of gigantic proportions...ornate cement work around a bay window that is mounted over an equally creative archway leading through the Palace to the balconies overlooking the valley below.
