Pena Palace Architecture Tour | Europe From Above: Season 3 | National Geographic UK

In 1836, Queen Maria, The Second, of Portugal married a German prince named Ferdinand. As a love letter to his new wife and Portuguese subjects, the King of Portugal built something that would embrace and celebrate Portugal's cultural DNA - the Pena Palace. From above, one can see the incredibly nuanced construction of the castle's domes to reflect Portugal's rich history and the neo-Gothic, neo-Manueline, neo-Islamic and neo-Indian architectural influences. King Ferdinand's attention to detail charmed his people and the Royal Family, who soon made the Pena Palace their summer residence, which would remain the case for the next six decades. Join this remarkable aerial journey across Portugal to unravel the country's rich cultural history. Brand new Europe From Above, Sundays at 8pm on National Geographic UK.
