Leisure & Surroundings
Caves and Volcanism Centre Roughly 10 minutes by foot and 3 minutes drive from Casa da Piedade, The visit to the caves is very well organized, lasting about 30 minutes under the direction of specialized guides. The visit is very interesting because the monotony from the repetition of scenery that hardly changes has been overcome by the creation of a route that is mysterious, suitably lighted, having a well-chosen musical background and special magically architected lighting. All this combines with the telluric imagination regarding the Centre of the Earth...
Rota da Cal & Museum Centre

Placed at Sítio dos Lameiros, Municipality of São Vicente, this centre encloses an area close to 12 000 m2 where, besides its local landscape beauty, we find two limestone quarries, a lime kiln and other constructions used to support farming and cattle-raising, such as haylofts, cultivation fields and levadas (water channels), very typical of Madeira's landscape.
