Terceira is the third largest island of the Azores archipelago and its main cultural center. Its capital, Angra do Heroismo, stands out for its Renaissance layout and its historical importance on the Atlantic routes. The island offers fascinating geology, allowing visitors to descend into a volcano in Algar do Carvão. With a green landscape dotted with 'curraletas' (vineyards protected by stone walls) and a coastline of natural lava pools, Terceira is famous for its hospitality and unique traditions, such as the 'Touradas à Corda' and the festivities of the Holy Spirit.
