Take a relaxing break in Funchal and visit the beautiful tropical Garden Monte Palace Madeira. José Berardo created this park and turned it into an important collection of Portuguese tiles and a fascinating exotic world of plants from all over the world and a variety of bird species. Lovers of Far Eastern cultures will be enchanted by this park!

Batalha Monastery in Portugal
South of Leiria, you should visit the Monastery of Batalha, a masterpiece of Portuguese Gothic and part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site. It was built by King Joao in gratitude for the fact that in 1385 Portuguese troops defeated the Castilian army, thereby ensuring the country's independence. Take a look at the founder's chapel with the magnificent colorful windows and the cloisters.

Porto's best Francesinha
If you want to eat the best francesinha in Porto, then visit the "Café Santiago", undoubtedly one of the best places to try this classic, hearty calorie bomb. The francesinha is a baked sandwich made of toast, various types of meat and sausage, cheese and fried egg. Everything is then doused with a spicy gravy of beer and tomatoes.
