Description by the author

Levada dos Maroços è una bella e facile passeggiata lungo una levada nella valle di Machico, la seconda città più grande dell’isola di Madeira, a est della capitale Funchal.

Una levada è uno stretto canale d’irrigazione costruito appositamente sull’isola portoghese di Madeira per trasportare l’acqua dalle montagne umide e piovose del nord-ovest alle zone agricole più aride e soleggiate del sud e del sud-est.

Machico è importante dal punto di vista storico perché fu la prima città scoperta nel 1419 dai navigatori portoghesi Tristão Vaz Teixeira e João Gonçalves Zarco. Le valli laterali della «Ribeira de Machico» sono particolarmente pittoresche in primavera, quando gli alberi di acacia sono in fiore.
