About Sintra,
Byron was inspired by high places, the lofty mountains, blue hills, clear streams and waterfalls. Brought up until the age of eight in Aberdeen by his Scottish mother, he referred fondly to his Celtic memories. He wrote a letter telling her: “The village of Cintra, about 15 miles from the capital, contains palaces and gardens rising in the middle of rocks, cataracts, and precipices; convents on stupendous heights – a distant view of the sea and Tagus River…it unites in itself all the wildness of the western highlands, with the verdure of the south of France.”
