[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
A traditional landmark of elegance and comfort, this manueline-gothic palace is surrounded by splendid gardens and the magnificent national forest of bussaco, planted centuries ago by the Carmelites. The hotel is actually set in the midst of a spectacular and serene landscape, in the heart of a 105 hectare virgin forest that is composed of rare trees and exotic plants. The Bussaco Palace is also close to local attractions, such as the University town of Coimbra.

thank you for your note & picture.
I like everything in your picture :
1.the suspended twigs on the left side
2.how you "framed" the palace between a monument & a tree
so the framing of your pic. is done professionally.
3.yet it's not so far that we can't see the details of the facades...\
BRAVO !!!( I"ve run out of my points, so forgive me for not giving any points...)suppose 2 smilies
