 Surrounded by the Atlantic Ocean and very close to the centre of Europe is a beautiful island known worldwide for its natural beauty, Madeira Island. One of its main attractions (along with its mountains and cliffs) is its prehistoric laurisilvas (laurel forests), which have been declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO.
Located closer to Morocco than Portugal, this island is the largest of the archipelago that bears the same name and was formed 20 million years ago after intense volcanic activity.
On the way to the capital of Madeira Island, Funchal, you can see bright white houses filling up large areas of the slopes that rise before the bay. The city is clean and open, full of parks and squares, and has breathtaking views of both the ocean and mountains. A large number of the city’s attractions are found in the Zona Velha,near the Sé or cathedral; here it is possible to relax and have a drink in one of the pavement cafés or modern cafés (just like in the rest of Portugal, the coffee on Madeira is excellent).
The Sacro Museum, with views of the Plaza del Municipio, is one of the largest museums on the island and has a collection of Flemish masterpieces, many of which were obtained thanks to the sugar trade. Although the city is full of different museums, such as those dedicated to electricity and sugar, new ones are always appearing, such as the Madeira Story Centre, which opened in 1995 and offers an interactive view of the island’s history dating back to its volcanic origins.
Another wonder of the city is its gourmet cuisine. Swordfish with banana, sardine salads, and the espetada (a skewer of beef marinated in garlic) are some of the island’s dishes which all lovers of fine dining will enjoy.
We must not forget another of Madeira Island’s charms: its 400 year-old tradition of wine making. The wine’s many varieties are fitting for all the different moments of a meal: chilled wines are served as an aperitif, the sweet ones go with dessert and the smoothest and most aromatic make excellent digestive aids. These wines are ideal for drinking when listening to good fado music. Also well-known is the embroidery work of Madeira, in linen, natural silk, organza and cotton. |
