One of the most curious places of the island, which consists of a set of characteristic houses numbering 500 in the fifteenth century

It would be unforgivable to miss one of the island's most curious spots, the Rua da Banana, a small cobbled street steeped in history. This picturesque street is made up of a series of characteristic houses, of which there were 500 in the 15th century, according to a manuscript from the period. Constructed of stone and lime, they were covered with a vegetal palm roof and painted in bright colors. Parallel to this street, Rua Carrera has a similar layout. A rare and exceptional heritage with incredible charm: get your cameras ready!

Attraction majeure du village à ne pas manquer lors de votre visite pédestre, visiter au début de la rue, la maison d'art local! sinon cette rue sera vous ravir avec son cheminement pavé, ses belles maisons typiques coloniales, son atmosphère particulière, jardins et église pour donner du cachet à l'ensemble.
