  • Furnas Hot spring area on São Miguel Island
  • Mount Pico Highest volcano in Portugal

How to Distinguish

  • They are Portuguese islands, so plates, road signs, and poles match mainland Portugal
  • Street View focuses on Terceira and São Miguel
  • You often see stone walls and hydrangea-like flowers
  • Some signposts have striped, colored poles

As Portuguese territory, license plates, signage, and utility poles mirror mainland Portugal.

Low, white houses—or pastel-colored homes—are common. There are very few tall buildings, and single-story homes are everywhere. Both the Azores and Madeira tend to have dark green doors and windows.

Stone walls and hydrangea-like flowers line many rural roads.

On Faial Island, only the area around the Caldeira has limited Street View coverage(References ファイアル島).
