Beautiful hot spring town Furnas

Furnas town is located in the valley area of the east of Sao Miguel Island, and outside the town is the famous Furnas Lake, a volcanic lake. Steam occasionally erupts from the cracks in the rocks on the lakeshore, and there is a smell of sulfur in the air. Local people use geothermal energy to cook, and tourists can taste authentic cuisine "Furnas stew" here. The melodious bell of the small church brings peace and tranquility to people's minds, and various flowers are planted in the courtyards on both sides of the street, as well as green lawns. Parque Terra Nostra, built in 1775, is the most characteristic hot spring in the area, with a yellow water surface emitting a faint rust smell, and the water temperature is about 40 degrees. In the botanical garden, trees, flowers and plants are flourishing, and being there is like walking in a fairyland.
