Miradouro da Vista do Rei

As I promised you, I'm writing something about it Miradouro da Vista do Rei today.

It is located at approximately 544 meters altitude and one of the most iconic "postcard" views of the Azores.

It lies next to the Monte Palace Hotel, the lost place I already wrote about.

The view offers a privileged panoramic view over the Sete Cidades and the twin lakes Lagoa Azul and Lagoa Verde. The landscape is considered one of the 7 Natural Wonders of Portugal.

The name "Vista do Rei" commemorates the visit of King D. Carlos I and Queen D. Amélia in July 1901.

It is very easily accessible by car (about 30 minutes from Ponta Delgada) and has parking and restrooms nearby.

Before going up, check the real-time weather conditions via SpotAzores, like I already wrote often: fog is very common in this area and can completely block the view.Baca lagi
