    Dating back to the 17th century, the convent was built following the legend of a ship that was saved from a pirate attack by a female image. The Convent has a façade of characteristic Azorean architecture, with an interesting cloister that can be visited.

    Close your eyes, make a wish, walk around the tree forward 3 times and backward 3 times, and then enjoy your wish fulfilled 🤗

    (Be careful of the large roots and please don't fall while doing this 😱)

    Mighty tree that is a natural monument.
