Madeira Island photo with Typical Houses, Portugal Round Clock
This is a photo of Madeira Island, Portugal, showing the typical houses. Madeira captivates visitors with its enchanting beauty amidst the Atlantic Ocean. This paradise boasts stunning landscapes, vibrant flora, and a rich cultural tapestry. One of its most iconic attractions is Santana's Typical Houses, a collection of charming dwellings that showcase the island's heritage.
The Santana houses, known as "palheiros," are chraacterised by their triangular thatched roofs and colourful doors. These unique structures have stood the test of time, preserving the traditional way of life in Madeira. Stepping into one of these houses feels like entering a bygone era.
Madeira’s small, triangular houses were once made of straw taken from the cereal plantation and wood from the forests. These materials were cheap and abundant in this region and important to balance the temperature of the interior. The high slope of the roofs allowed the rainwater to drain. We estimate that triangular houses are traces of primitive constructions. Inside only an attic, where agricultural products were kept, and a ground floor, where the residential area was located, divided into two separate parts, the kitchen, and the bedroom. Santana city centre is the best place on Madeira island to observe the traditional houses of Madeira
By exploring the Traditional Houses of Madeira you can learn about the island's customs, crafts, and folklore. Whether you seek adventure, relaxation, or a cultural escape, Madeira Island and Santana's Typical Houses have something to offer every traveller. While dreaming of visiting this gem in the Atlantic and creating memories that will last a lifetime, here’s a photograph of Madeira Island that you can take home or offer a relative or a Portuguese friend, or a Nature lover.

Other reviews complained about the quality - but even through it was made of plastic - it did not feel flimsy, and the graphics were perfectly rendered and vibrant - exactly what I had designed.
Cant go wrong at this price
It was made and shipped to me within a day or so - I got in in Australia (From California) - within a week - unreal.
Very Happy. Perfect - colours vibrant - faithfully replicated my design
