On Madeira, Anne expects spectacular steep cliffs and lava pools instead of long sandy beaches. She explores an underwater conservation park full of exotic fish and in the capital, Funchal, she discovers an outdoor gallery of ornately painted front doors. She also follows in the footsteps of world footballer Cristiano Ronaldo, who grew up in Funchal, and explores the secret of the famous Madeira wine. Also spectacular is the hike through the ancient laurel forest, along the water channels, the famous levadas, which were hewn into the rock on Madeira as early as the 14th century.
