PORTUGAL / AZORES / ANGRA DO HEROÍSMO

Read a harbour city between bay and hillside.

Eight places on Terceira connect cathedral, convents, palaces and coastal defence. Begin in the centre and plan the forts separately; straight-line distances do not explain slopes or military boundaries. This is an initial urban selection, not a route around the whole island.
