Places to visit in Portugal

Portugal is Lisbon and Porto first: trams on steep lanes and custard tarts in Lisbon, tiled churches and Douro bridges in Porto, with Sintra's palaces a short train ride out of Lisbon. The Algarve is for golden cliffs and beaches, and Madeira and the Azores are Atlantic islands for walks and crater lakes. From KL it's one stop, usually via Dubai or Istanbul.
