Welcome to Madeira


Where in the fascination of Madeira lies, its essential spirit and potent charm, it is not easy to say, but certain it is that she throws gold-dust into the eyes of all who yield to her spell, and it is through a glamour of enchantment that they behold her.No romance of an ancient civilization casts a halo of glory round her past, for but five hundred years of chequered history lie behind her.” (Pg. 40 )
