Directions
Saleta (Sitting Room)
From the Chapel, head back to the Skylight Room. Facing the portrait of King Miguel I again, walk through the door on your left. You are now standing in the Sitting Room or Saleta. Along with the Benedita’s Bedroom, the Empire Style Room, and the Oratory, this room is part of Maria Francisca Benedita's personal quarters. Take a moment to look up at the intricately decorated ceiling that is a hallmark of all these rooms. Then, direct your attention to the portrait on the left-hand wall. Listen out for some great stories about Maria as you make your way through her chambers. You’ll be walking through 4 rooms belonging to this princess before you reach our next stop.
