View this photo of the Monte Palace Tropical Garden in Madeira which is famous for its wide variety of plants. The garden includes two authentic Oriental gardens, one Chinese and one Japanese with references to the Age of Discovery that took Portuguese adventurers to both countries.
Another botanical garden is located in Canico, a small village in the southwestern part of Madeira Island. The splendid main building contains many historical artifacts and has been restored in the 19th century. It now houses the four-star Quinta Splendida Wellness & Botanical Garden.
