In 1444, the island's first inhabitants settled in this unusual spot surrounded by seven hills. You can have fun counting them from the vantage point overlooking the town: Lombas do Cavaleiro, do Carro, do Botão, do Pomar, do Loução, do Alcaide and dos Pós. The locals are renowned for their hospitality and floral art. During the Feast of the Holy Spirit, the flowers they strewn along the paths form magnificent designs. The narrow cobbled streets of the town center are very pleasant. It's worth taking a look at the church of Nossa Senhora do Rosário, the oldest on the island, the Town Hall clock and its curious history.
