Confeitaria Felisberta or Patisserie Felisberta, in english. This is the name of one of the most famous cake shops of the city of Funchal, situated in Rua das Pretas. However, what we see in the photo shows that, unfortunately, is closed. Closed to the public, who never had access to wonderful recipes of cakes and sweets where each customer could serve up, and closed his knowledge.

The patisserie was closed for many years, and shows the deterioration with the name about to disappear. Unfortunately nobody is interested to recover it. I have the perception that this type of offer differentiates a destination such as Madeira.

In Funchal there are three ways to send the mail. Besides the green mail, which is inside the station and is for those who purchase the packages in pre-payment, there are these two landmarks. The red is for normal mail, the traditional. And the blue, where we pay for mail to goo faster. Is called the blue post or Correio Azul, in portuguese.

However, this offer is not very well perceived by thousands of tourists who visit us. So often are in doubt which should put the postcards with images of the island of Madeira.

This is one of the views of the Cathedral of Funchal (the tower on the right) most photographed. It is captured through the "Largo do Chafariz".

The tower on the left belongs to a typical building of the city where it is today the Santander bank.

The moon inspires the city

Madeira ice is a different way to drink this world famous wine produced in Madeira island many centuries ago. This particular car is one of five Smart with this design to promote the Madeira wine, sweet, with ice a limon. Tastefully. During the summer months, this cars and others marketing action will sensibilze the residents and foreigners to taste it.
