Funchal Ecological Park

Head to the hills in Madeira and experience breathtaking scenery and incredible fauna and flora. It is a beautiful place for long walks including some Levada (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Levada), incredible works of engineering to transport water to the south of the island - there are over 1,350 miles of Levada on Madeira! Buses run from Funchal. We went on a guided walk and benefited from fascinating insights into the history and life in the park.

This was taken on my way to the highest peak in Madeira, a beautiful little Portuguese isalnd near the African coast. I met the most friendliest people here on this isalnd.
