Comments:
Starting in 1870, the royal family began to stay in Cascais during the summer, along with the rest of their close relatives. In this light, the "summer architecture" developed, magnificent buildings and castles intended to be used by the royal court and others.

This route indicates some of the noteworthy buildings in the city.
