Parque Terra Nostra
No. 4 of Fall Viewing Attractions in Portugal

Parque Terra Nostra

4.3
Parque Terra Nostra is a beautiful attraction that blends a botanical kingdom, geothermal hot springs, and romantic scenery. With a history spanning several centuries, Parque Terra Nostra has seen generations of owners and botanists introduce plant species from around the world while preserving many local endemic varieties. The park is lush and verdant: towering ancient trees, tropical and temperate plants, tree ferns, rhododendrons, camellias, and other flowers and foliage are intertwined, offering a rich variety of plants with diverse colors and forms. A natural microclimate allows these plants to thrive in an environment with excellent water, soil, and humidity conditions. Beyond the natural beauty of the botanical garden itself, what makes Parque Terra Nostra particularly captivating is its hot spring pool—a mineral-rich pool heated by volcanic geothermal energy. The water temperature is pleasant, and it is skin-friendly, offering an experience that relaxes both body and mind. The park is elegantly laid out, and themed gardens such as the ginkgo avenue, camellia garden, and fern area offer different surprises in every season. Whether in spring, summer, fall, or winter, it possesses a unique beauty.Furnas · 10 km from Achada
