Palatino, designed by Hermann Zapf, is an elegant font. To typeset a document in Palatino: 

\usetypescript[palatino][ec]
\setupbodyfont[palatino,11pt]

(I use 11pt because I find 12pt slightly too large, but choose your favorite size.)

That setup uses Palatino for text and mathematics. To set the mathematics in Euler (also designed by Hermann Zapf), 

\usetypescript[palatino][ec]
\definetypeface [palatino] [mm] [math] [euler] [euler] [rscale=1.03] 
\setupbodyfont[palatino,11pt]

(The rscale setting is to match the Euler font height to the Palatino height.)

To get boldface mathematics symbols, 

\usetypescript[palatino][ec]
\definetypeface [palatino] [mm] [math]   [euler] [euler][rscale=1.03]
\definetypeface [boldmath] [mm] [boldmath][euler][euler][rscale=1.03]
\setupbodyfont[palatino,11pt]

Here is an example:
