Miradouro Do Facho

Reviewed By susannet175 - North Carolina Mountains, United States

Our cruise ship was diverted to Praia da Vitoria and we really enjoyed this stop. We decided to start by hiking up to Miradouro Do Facho and the views over the town, the harbour and parts of the island were beautiful! The hike up the steep steps took us a while, but we took our time (maybe 30 minutes). Wear comfortable shoes; it makes the hike up those uneven steps so much easier! It was so totally worth it! We decided to hike down the road back into town and the landscape on the other side was breathtaking! Walking through farms with the wonderful views...it was great!

Camara Municipal de Angra do Heroismo

Angra has had three city halls. The first city hall had a small square in front. Later, the trade from India and the importance of the city led to the construction of a larger square and a new building with lateral staircases, a portico with columns, and a bell tower. The existing city hall was built in the nineteenth century and was inspired by the Oporto's old City Hall. It has one of the largest and grandiose great halls in the country.

Interesting Historic Building Free To Enter And walk around, we went upstairs to the two large rooms, very nice to see the architecture and paintings, you will spend around 10 to 15 minutes visiting the interior.

Alto da Memoria

Well worth the effort to get to the top of the weather is clear. We trekked up the road using Google Maps. When he headed down, we used the easier walking path with steps and landings and beautiful plants and flowers that ended in the botanical gardens (Duke of Terceira’s Garden).

Museum of Angra do Heroismo

Reviewed By Marlene39forever - Pembroke, Canada

I can’t recommend this place enough. We spent a few hours there and enjoyed every moment. All of the place is in English, except temporary exhibit on history of the building. Was monastery, seminary , now a museum. It covers history of the Azores, 500 years which ties in to Europe and sea faring years , more recent culture, limited military history, recent major earthquake, cultural traditions such as embroidery trade, religion, jesuits, geology of island. It’s all here. And free on Sundays. Otherwise cheap 2 euros. Spend some time here,

Serra do Cume Viewpoint

The view of the Island from this viewing platform is amazing. From here you can see several dairy farms and may pastures. it is so green. Hint it was very windy/cool on the platform - wear a light weight jacket or sweater.
