Madeira Island, my hometown

in #hometown7 years ago

I noticed that i never wrote about the place where i was born and lived and so this post is to talk about MADEIRA, a small island in the middle of the atlantic that won the prize of World's Leading Island Destination in 2017, as well as in 2016 and 2015 :)

The island besides its great climate and beautiful views is also quite famous as the birthplace of Cristiano Ronaldo and also because of the famous Madeira wine :) (yes, i like to drink it)

Madeira Island is a Portuguese island situated in the north Atlantic Ocean, southwest of Portugal. Population is around 250.000 and the capital is Funchal, located on the south coast.

Here is a view of Funchal, the capital:

Machico, the city where my parents are from and that i love:

Pico do Arieiro, incredible views over the mountains:

Ponta de São Lourenço, where the North meets the South of the island:

Hope you enjoy it and if you ever visit the island let me know! I would be glad to meet you
