Levadas, Madeira Island
Levadas are one of Madeira's main tourist attractions, offering direct contact with practically untouched nature. If you are unfamiliar with the term “levadas”, understand that they were originally created to carry water from the north of the island (where there is a wetter climate) to the south (where the climate is drier). Nowadays, its main function is to show the beauty of Madeira to its visitors. These waterways can only be explored by foot or bike.
