Interesting painting on the doors.

Les portes décorées de cette très vieilles rue de Funchal sont, pour la plupart, à voir. Certaines heures, surtout pendant les vacances, il y a beaucoup trop de monde dans cette petite rue. Pour vraiment l'apprécier venez plutôt le matin.

In this typically seaside neighborhood, they have given a touch of life to the streets with this urban art proposal, which gives color and atmosphere to the area. The streets are narrow and with low houses, perfect for a walk. Despite it being low season, I found quite a few people, and since there are many restaurant terraces, there are especially narrow areas.

I liked to visit this area, after we found it walking on narrow streets in Zona Velha. It is located between Farmers market and Teleferico Funchal - Monte. There are a lot of cozy restaurants and cafe, where you can take a rest if it is warm outside. I strongly recommend to visit, if you are in Funchal

You should definitely plan a visit to the street. Beautiful atmosphere, beautiful motifs, many restaurants invite you to linger.

Explore the painted doors. Rua Santa Maria is a street of mainly cafes and restarants in the old town but artists have made a feature of the doors by painting them in fantastic pictures and patterns which seem to change on a regular basis. It is known as the Art of Open Doors, although most of them are physically closed, of course. As you stroll down the street browsing the restaurant menus and getting greeted by waiters you can always pretend that you are just here for the art.

The painting on the doors are amazing to see, however the street is extremely crowded with multiple bars and restaurants covering the doors and the art. Worth seeing but I wouldn’t recommend going out of your way to see them.

Located in the old town in Funchal .. wonderful and vibrant artwork.

Nice to walkthrough and experience the interesting street art of Rue de Santa Maria.

Nice little narrow street with splendid artwork on the doors. It has a great atmosphere.

A very picturesque little road downtown Funchal! It’s filled with wall paintings! Definitely visit!

Please do visit. It’s free and some amazing art work here. Plus some restaurants to grab a drink and food.

Definitely beautiful walk!!! Don’t miss it!!! It is unique experience!!! Not only one street is decorated. Also some of the side ones are worth to walk.

Come before the restaurants open and you’ll be in for a treat to the eyes.

Beautiful art work in the old town

Interesting street to wander down looking at the painted doors. Just a quick wander worth taking the 15 mins to walk and appreciate the door art.

An excellent desicion for urban art and graffiti painting ! Make the street Rua de Santa Maria and the whole area so vivid!

Worth visiting if you are in Funchal. Great place with very colorful, interesting street art. The atmosphere is very artistic and the little streets are very nice to walk around!
