November 8, 2024,Levada do Caniçal/Runde um Maroços

A charming little levada circuit around Maroços, which always offers a view of the Machico district. The constantly changing perspectives of the staggered houses in the impressive hillside location make this tour particularly attractive for me. Top! 😍
