Sintra in Internet
Major activities in the area are commerce and tourism. Tourists are drawn by the cultural heritage in the town itself, and Sintra-Cascais Natural Park which encompasses the Serra de Sintra and extends to the coastal beaches of the municipality and Cabo da Roca, the westernmost point of mainland Europe, which lies 18 kilometres west of Sintra. The parishes of Sintra near Lisbon are in a demographic and construction boom; some of them are bigger than many municipalities in Portugal. (*)
