Palácio Nacional de Queluz
This building originated from the desire of King Pedro V to transform the Quinta de Queluz into a palace. Construction began in 1747 under the direction of Mateus Vicente de Oliveira and later J. B. Robillon, who gave the palace its exquisite decoration. Inside the palace, the throne room, the music room, and the ambassadors' room are prominent features. Its gardens are adorned with statues, lakes, and fountains. The grand canal has walls covered in tiles.
