    The view from up here is truly regal. When looking down from the crater rim, about 300 m, the northern lake (Lagoa Azul) appears blue due to the reflection of the sky and the southern lake (Lagoa Verde) appears green due to the vegetation.

    By the way, the origin of the name Vista do Rei is linked to the visit of King Carlos I and Queen Amélia on July 6, 1901.
