Madeira Botanical Gardens 
Madeira Botanical Gardens
One of Madeira’s loveliest green spaces, the island’s Botanical Gardens (Jardins Botânicos da Madeira) debuted in 1960.
Description
Located on the Bom Sucesso Estate—once privately owned by the island’s wealthy Reid family—the hilltop Madeira Botanical Gardens are now open to the public. Celebrated for lofty, seaside views as well as elaborate floral and plant displays, the gardens have spaces dedicated to succulents, indigenous Madeiran species, palm trees, enormous cacti, checkered flower beds, and more. An array of small fountains and water features are scattered throughout.
The gardens also boast a small but immersive natural history museum, as well as the Louro Bird Park. Numerous Funchal tours feature a stop at the gardens, including half-and full-day sightseeing excursions that also include a ride on the city’s scenic cable car.
