Nice gardens but azulejos need restauration, we did only visit the gardens so we can not talk about the interior of the mansion. Nice place outside, and gardens that needed some more care, the azulejos, although very nice, were in bad condition.

This was a fun tour, but not my favorite so far. I enjoyed the gardens very much, unfortunately we arrived when they were getting ready for wedding. The history of this house was interesting but not actually memorable. I loved the black swans that were there. They come right up to you looking for a snack. Our tour guide was... More

To get there from the Jardim Zoologica MTR Station take bus 770 or walk the road parallel to the railroad for 15 minutes until you see the blue and white pedestrian bridge to cross the the railroad.

The #770 bus in front of Jardim Zoologica goes to the front door of this palace. The bus only runs every half hour. You're only allowed in the palace via guided tours and, in Oct, only 2 tours given daily so time your transport well. Tickets is €7.50 for inside the palace, €3 for just the gardens. Go inside!

Luckily there is a bus to go back to downtown and there is one bus once an hour, stopping in front fo the palace. The palace itself was beautiful. However they do not allow any photography... More

Make this a priority on a trip to Lisbon. Although the Palacio is well photographed it is hard to imagine the tile details and drama of this amazing place.

This is a unique view into the lifestyle, wealth, style and power of Portugal during it's heyday. The guide gives life and understanding to the palace (which is still a residence) and I think it must be one of the more unusual tourist attractions. It's wonderful do not miss it.

Palacio Fronteira is an incredible piece of architecture and decor! Azulejos (colorful tiles) are all over the place: inside and outside the palace, at the terraces, at the garden - everywhere! You can visit either the garden only or take a tour inside the Palace. The tours are given only few times in the morning because the Marquise lives there,... More
