This collection features the 18th-century Terra Nostra Garden with its iron-rich thermal waters and the romantic 19th-century Jardim António Borges, famous for its lava-rock grottos. Explore the terraced slopes of Angra do Heroísmo at Jardim Duque da Terceira or the waterfalls and restored watermills of Ribeira dos Caldeirões.
