 Arriving
in the valley of “Furnas”, a true paradise, you will find many
interesting and beautiful places to make your stay a truly memorable
one, like Furnas lake, surrounded by a beautiful flowered shore
which inspires moments of tranquillity and romance; the “Ermida José
do Canto”, erected in dedication to Our Lady of Victory, projects a
gothic profile which is perfectly integrated and now inseparable
from the rest of the landscape; the area of the “Caldeiras” (Hot
Springs) at the lake, serve as a natural kitchen. Cooking by burying
pots of food in the earth is a tradition that not only appears
wondrous but provides a fantastic meal of mixed meats and vegetables
“cozido” (a form of New England boil), cod or even “caldeiradas de
peixe” (fish bouillabaisse) and more...
 In
the town of Furnas the “Caldeiras”, are even more spectacular. Many
openings in the earth sprout geysers of boiling hot water. The
medicinal mud and the faucets of mineral waters of various tastes
and temperatures are all conditions which make “Furnas” one of the
richest hydrologic regions in Europe.
The Thermal Baths make good use of these waters and muds by using
immersion baths, showers and mud applications to treat various
disorders, or just for your relaxation. A doctor, specialised in
thermal treatments is available. |
