❖Largo da Praça, Funchal, Madeira, 2019[open in full screen]

Previous Praça Amarela, Funchal, Madeira

Square of the square? Words Largo and Praça are both meaning urban square in Portuguese, what a puzzle?

This place wouldn't be in our collection if it doesn't have name that is making it unique.

Very narrow street extension is where you can find pretty good Italian restaurant and on the other end another little eatery both mostly used by locals.

Space is not even pedestrianized as many others all over Fuchal.

Visitors can hardly find this place, it is hidden at a side of the parking area of the commercial building that is facing main street towards the river.

We didn't like it. Visit two much more attractive squares, #2 and #3 on our map.
