Description
Sierra da Sintra (Moon Mountain) has a rich history that began long before Christianity. I invite those who want to look deeper and see more to walk through it. We will visit both the tourist spots that everyone knows and the hidden treasures of Portugal's historical heritage. We'll talk about how it was (and is!) influenced by Masonic traditions and the principles of other secret orders.
