An enchanting mix of terra cotta–roofed buildings (some dating to the 15th century), colorful flowers and patterned mosaic pavements, Funchal Old Town still has the quaint small-town feel it did centuries ago. The main attractions are the Mercado dos Lavradores (farmers market), the Madeira Story Center, Forte São Tiago and the Feira da Lagartixa (flea market).
