The Ajuda neighbourhood is one of Funchal's most modern and touristy areas. It lies to the west of the historic city centre and is well known for its luxury hotels, tourist flats, restaurants, bars and shopping centres, such as the Madeira Forum. It's a popular area for those who want to be close to the sea, with easy access to the Lido promenade, a very pleasant seafront promenade and Santa Catarina Park. Estrada Monumental is one of Funchal's main roads and runs through much of this area. It starts near the city centre and heads west, passing through Ajuda until it reaches Câmara de Lobos. It's a very busy road and is used a lot by locals and tourists alike. Along it, you'll find many hotels, shops, cafés, supermarkets, pharmacies and good spots to enjoy the sunset over the Atlantic, as it follows part of the coastline and is used by tourists and locals alike. It's a good place to walk, shop or dine with a view of the sunset, being a well-developed and practical area for those who want to be close to everything, with good access and incredible views.
