Caldeiras das Furnas
I love it when I find natural frames like this one, shot from inside a cave at Parque Terra Nostra in Furnas, São Miguel. The beautiful garden is built over a massive 10 hectares and it would be quite easy to spend the best part of a day here. There are walking trails, waterfalls, and a massive amount of plants and flowers to photograph and enjoy. Definitely one of the best photo spots on the island if you're into nature and fancy yourself as a bit of a botanist 🌿🌺 You can read more about how to seek out all the best photo spots on São Miguel here: https://galloparoundtheglobe.com/how-to-seek-out-the-best-photo-spots-on-sao-miguel-the-azores/
