Parque Temático da Madeira, Theme park in Santana, Portugal.
Parque Temático da Madeira is a park with different sections representing the island's nature and local traditions. The layout includes a village area with artisans, a farm section with animals, and gardens showing the region's plants.
The park was established in 2004 to preserve and present Madeiran heritage to the public. This opening marked a new approach to sharing the island's cultural traditions with visitors.
Artisans working in the village section demonstrate traditional crafts like wool weaving and Madeira embroidery as they have been practiced locally for generations. You can watch them at work and see how these skills remain part of daily life on the island.
The park closes on Mondays for maintenance, so plan your visit for another day of the week. The grounds have several sections spread across the area, so wear comfortable shoes and allow time to explore all the exhibits.
In the farm section, visitors can participate in rural activities and interact directly with farm animals. This hands-on experience gives you a real sense of how agricultural work happens on the island.
