    The National Palace of Queluz, located in Sintra, Portugal, is a well-preserved 18th-century royal residence that offers visitors a glimpse into Portuguese history and baroque architecture. Many visitors appreciate the palace's ornate interiors, featuring elaborate stucco work, gilded carvings, and beautiful tile panels. The meticulously maintained gardens, often compared to those of Versailles, are a highlight for many, with their geometric designs, fountains, and statues.

    Visitors often comment positively on the audio guide, which provides informative context about the palace's history and its former inhabitants. The palace's connection to the Portuguese royal family, particularly its role as the birthplace of Dom Pedro IV, adds to its historical significance.

    However, some visitors note that the palace can get crowded, especially during peak tourist seasons, which may impact the overall experience. A few reviewers mention that some areas of the palace and gardens could benefit from additional restoration or maintenance.

    While many find the entry fee reasonable for the experience offered, others suggest that it might be slightly overpriced compared to other attractions in the area. Some visitors also mention that the gift shop and cafe facilities could be improved.

    Overall, the National Palace of Queluz is generally well-regarded for its historical importance, architectural beauty, and well-preserved interiors and gardens, making it a noteworthy stop for those interested in Portuguese history and baroque architecture.
