Its area is approximately 145km². It includes the Serra de Sintra Mountain Range but extends all the way to the coast and Cabo da Roca, continental Europe's westernmost point.
Almoçageme
Almoçageme is a village on the Portuguese municipality of Sintra and in the Freguesia of Colares. The name Almoçageme is obviously Arab in origin – the Iberian peninsula is packed with Muslim toponyms that are a legacy of the five hundred years the Moors stayed over. One possible root is from al-masjid or al-mesijide, meaning “the mosque” – although there are no testimonies of one having been around.
Roman villa of Santo André de Almoçageme
In Santo André de Almoçageme, Sintra, is located the westernmost villa of the Roman Empire with occupation from the second to the sixth centuries AD. Excavations exposed a large area of the main house – pars urbana – in which several rooms with mosaic pavements exist north of the peristyle. An area of the pars rustica was also excavated.
Archaeological Site of Alto da Vigia
The Archaeological Site of Alto da Vigia is a set of Roman and 16th century ruins located in the Portuguese municipality of Sintra, near Praia das Maçãs. The oldest accounts of a Roman sanctuary to the Sun, Moon and Imperial cult, by the mouth of the river of Colares dates back to the 16th century. It was a circular temenos, an open air religious space.
