Spring in Madeira: the capital Funchal
The capital of the island of Madeira is Funchal, where the largest number of inhabitants of the island actually live and work.
Due to its pleasant climate, the city is a major tourist attraction.
Funchal is located in a bay on the Atlantic Ocean, but it fans out over the slopes of the surrounding green hills.
There is a natural port, where large cruise ships dock almost every day to unload their thousands of tourists.
The photo below was taken at the Monte Church, about 150 meters higher, with a view of Funchal and the cruise port.
