Muro Das Nove Janelas

Muro Das Nove Janelas, Ponta Delgada, Portugal

10 min

The Muro das Nove Janellas, located in the Sete Cidades region on São Miguel Island in the Azores, is one of the island's most iconic landmarks, rich in history and significance. Built in the 18th century, this wall was originally constructed to demarcate agricultural properties and also serve as a retaining structure for the land on the slopes of the Sete Cidades crater. The wall is notable for its nine arched openings, known as "janellas" (windows). These "windows" are not traditional windows but openings designed to allow rainwater to pass through and to serve as ventilation points. The wall stretches across one of the most beautiful and photographed areas of the island, offering stunning views of the Sete Cidades lakes.

From the viewpoint, visitors are treated to sweeping views of the lakes nestled between the surrounding lush hills, the picturesque village of Sete Cidades, and the vast ocean in the distance. The contrasting colors of the lakes, depending on the light and weather conditions, make this spot especially popular for photographers and nature lovers.
