The capital, Funchal, is a small but vibrant city full of character and built around a natural ampitheatre. Funchal is almost five-centuries old and is said to have been named 'Funchal' because of the abundance of fennel (funcho) that was growing there.

Funchal is located in an absolutely unique area. The amphitheatre of Funchal city begins at the harbour and rises almost 1200 m high on gentle slopes. This provides a natural shelter and was what once attracted the first settlers. The best harbour and the best climate combined with an excellent geographical position allowed Funchal to have a rapid population growth. Today Funchal is a very modern city with over 104,000 inhabitants. The city can easily be explored by foot and no matter where your hotel is located you will find no difficulty in walking into the city centre to delight at its sights and sounds.
