Furnas and its 800 camellias
Furnas, one of the most visited places on São Miguel Island, has countless gardens that stand out by the color, energy and authenticity of all its flowers, trees, lakes and much more!
Thus, every year, the parish of Furnas flourishes with its more than 800 camellias in Parque Terra Nostra. It is a unique spectacle of Nature, which heralds the arrival of spring in the Azores, where the flowers begin to bloom and their colors awaken in what is one of the best-known botanical gardens in all of Europe.
Without a doubt, this parish is the capital of camellias, a unique place where, between February and March, it is possible to visit an exhibition of these magnificent flowers at the Casino das Furnas. It is a way to contribute to the local economy, to teach and make known a little more about these flowers and, above all, to inspire people to value all that nature has to offer us.
If São Miguel is known as the green island, then it is thanks to Furnas that we can be proud of this contribution. Don’t miss this opportunity to get to know these charming flowers that so enchant the island of São Miguel.
Get in touch with nature and discover all that it is capable of creating. These flowers are an example of their magnitude, and we couldn’t be prouder to live in a place where nature is part of our daily lives.
