Oriental
About
Found on Madeira, Oriental sits at Caminho das Babosas 4 A, Monte, 9050-288 Funchal, Portugal, in the hills above the capital. The venue operates as a bar, and its position in Monte places it above Funchal rather than in the city centre.
Reaching the venue from the main resorts and towns is straightforward, since Funchal anchors the island's road network and Câmara de Lobos, Caniço, Machico, Santana, São Vicente, Porto Moniz and Calheta all lie within reach. A 4.5 out of 5 average across 8 reviews marks a positive reception from a small set of visitors.
Monte is a hilltop parish of Funchal, and the Caminho das Babosas address places the bar within that higher district. Portuguese is the official language on Madeira, with local accents and creole varieties heard across the islands.
The winter months are cooler and windier, and each island group has its own pattern of wet and dry months. Music and dance are central to island life, from morna and coladeira to Azorean folk songs.
