(Lisboa) I was born in Madeira and of course I know Santo da Serra. It is a small and beautiful village full of great things to see. First of all you must be there and now is even easier to go with the new road to Camacha from Funchal. Second thing don't forget to wear proper clothes because even if it is warm in the main city Funchal probably it is cold in Santo da Serra situated approximately 700 meters above the sea level. If you are from the north of Europe you may find this advice funny.
This place was known as Nova Aldeia or Aldeia da Rainha in the past. Aldeia da Rainha was created in the kingdom of Maria I as a result of bringing people from Porto Santo. The Golf in Santo da Serra gives a lot to this region but you may visit as well the park located in the center of the village or you may walk throw the roads and see the beautiful landscape and the great houses built here. Many British visited and built houses here in the past. The park is now property of the Gouverment but it was called Blandy Park many years ago. On the weekend the main village road serves as a market where you can find local products at a reasonable price.
Here I show you some pictures of the park. If you appreciate tranquillity and life with no stress at all you may find this place a paradise.

Não, não passei a escrever em inglês. Apenas escrevi o texto acima para publicação noutro blog que não este e que é escrito em inglês. Um blog da autoria de Donamaro e que está nos links ao lado. Para aceder cliquem aqui. Nesse texto falo um pouco sobre o Santo da Serra. Uma pequena Vila na Madeira mais acessível agora do que nunca para quem está no Funchal e pode usar a nova estrada que vai para a Camacha. Vir ao Santo, como é comummente chamado pelos locais, já se justificaria só para passear no Parque do Governo, antigamente conhecido como Parque Blandy. Lembro-me de antigamente existirem aqui Cangurus e desmentido recentemente fui à procura de uma prova. Alguém que comprovasse aquilo que tinha quase a certeza de já ter visto. Neste link aqui. Pode-se ler O parque tem alguma variedade de animais incluindo, veados, cavalos, cabras e até um canguru já foi visto. Por vezes confusões podem acontecer mas quando se tem a certeza e mais ninguém tem é preciso ir à procura de provas. E elas estão apresentadas.
