Castle of the Moors questions
Should I visit the Castle of the Moors or Pena Palace?
They sit next to each other, so many people do both. Choose the castle for walls and views, Pena for colourful interiors.
Is the Castle of the Moors hard to walk?
It involves many uneven steps and steep sections along the walls. Good shoes help; it's not suited to limited mobility.
