Buçaco Palace, Portugal
Commissioned by King Charles I of Portugal as a royal retreat, the Bussaco Palace was built between 1888 and 1907 in Coimbra and remains one of the country’s most historically significant pieces of architecture. In 1917, the palace was turned into a hotel, still owned and run to this day by the family of Alexandre de Almeida.
