A View Worth Fighting For

An expansive view of nearby Sintra and towns from the guard tower of the Moorish Castle in Portugal.

After what seemed like eternity, our group of five travelers were met with this time-stopping view. We had gone from trains, to busses, to wrong uber directions, to finally make it to the guard tower of the Morrish Castle in Sintra, Portugal. 

The journey had been rough, but we got to walk up the winding steps of history preserved in the guard tower. The worn bricks held so many stories that we all forgot how many times we’d gotten lost while trying to reach them.
