Miradouro do Cerrado das Freiras, which translates to “Viewpoint of the Closed Nuns,” is named for its historical connection to a group of nuns who sought refuge in the area during pirate attacks in the 16th century. Located on São Miguel Island in the Azores, this viewpoint offers a breathtaking view of the Sete Cidades caldera and its dual lakes, steeped in the legend of a shepherd and a princess whose tears are said to have formed the lakes.

Offering a quieter alternative to the more frequented Vista do Rei, Miradouro do Cerrado das Freiras provides a unique vantage point with fewer crowds, making it ideal for those seeking solitude and a deep connection with nature. The best time to visit is early in the morning or late in the afternoon when the soft light enhances photography and the overall experience, with morning mists or the golden glow of sunset adding a mystical ambiance to the striking landscape.
