Here’s what to expect on the Azores: Flores Flores is the westernmost island of the Azores. Its name means flowers. There are seven lakes, including the forest green Lagoa Negra that sits right beside the bright blue Lagoa Comprida. Corvo With fewer than 500 inhabitants (居民),Corvo is the smallest and most lonely Azorean island. It’s just four miles long and not even three miles wide. Still, this tiny island is a famous place for bird watchers, who come here especially in the fall, hoping to see yellow-billed cuckoos (杜鹃) and many other kinds of birds. Faial The island is famous for its paintings which are seen on the walls and floor of the port. A village is covered with volcanic (火山的) ash and other volcanic material many years ago. Capelinhos Volcano Interpretation Center has exhibits (展览品) telling the stories of this and other volcanoes. Pico The almost 8, 000-foot-tall Mt. Pico, Portugal’s highest peak, dominates (支配) the landscape on this island. It’s the fertile, mineral-rich volcanic soil that has put Pico on every true wine lover’ s list. The Cooperativa Vitivinicola, a more than 70-year-old wine co-op in Madalena,the island’s capital, offers informal tastings that include Verdelho, a crisp white produced from grapes native to this island.
