Teatro Municipal Baltazar Dias (Pass by)

On your left, facing the Municipal Garden, is the Baltazar Dias Theatre. It was built in 1888 to replace the old Grand Theatre of the city, which was demolished several decades earlier. Its architecture takes over that

Funchal (Pass by)

As we move along the pleasant Promenade de Funchal, let me tell you the history of Madeira Island and this historic city. You can, if you wish, take the opportunity to sit down for a while. This island that lies

Portas Da Cidade (city Gates) (Pass by)

In front of you stands a strange door, a little out of nowhere: it is the Varadouros door, also called Portas da Cidade. It is not the original construction that you have there, but a reproduction that was made in 2004. She

We are still in the garden Almirante Reis, and on our way to the seafront, we necessarily come across this large statue. Called the Football Player, it was sculpted by Martim Velosa in 2005. She represents a man willing to

Santa Maria Street (Pass by)

Here you are, in one of the must-see streets of Funchal! Santa Maria Rua is one of the oldest in the city, being located in the very first district created in Funchal. This narrow and cobblestone street, which stretches over 600 metres, is imbued with an atmosphere that

Mercado dos Lavradores (Pass by)

Here you are in front of a place you will certainly want to enter! Mercado dos Lavradores brings together all the good flavours of Funchal on its 3 floors of colourful stalls. This Covered Point of Sale was built in the 1930s: that’s why it reveals a very beautiful architecture

Rua Fernão de Ornelas (Pass by)

Here you are in a street that is not as historic as those of the old centre. It was built in the 1940s, and is named after Fernão de Ornelas, former mayor of Funchal, between 1935 and 1946. It is very well known in Madeira because it is the origin of important works of

Tribunal Criminal do Funchal (Pass by)

On your right, the imposing building that is posted there is the Funchal court. It reveals a beautiful architecture characteristic of Portuguese administrative structures of the 20th century, sober, but functional. It blends well with the decor of the other buildings in the city, which are

The praça do Munícipio, or municipal square in French, is marked by its beautiful wave-shaped cobblestones, which dress the place and attract the eye. But when you look up a little, you can see that it too is surrounded by beautiful historic buildings, with typical island architecture.
