  • What's the Forum Madeira Shopping Centre like? We hope you enjoy this Forum Virtual Madeira Shopping Centre walk in Funchal, Madeira Island in Autumn 2022, where you can walk it for yourself.
    Located in the tourist area to the west of Funchal near Funchal Lido, the Forum Shopping Centre on Madeira Island has around over 80 shops, a car park with room for 800 vehicles, around a dozen restaurants, cafés and snack bars, 6 cinema screens and a hypermarket.
    Located on Estrada Monumental it features a rooftop garden with lovely panoramic views over the Atlantic Ocean.
    In this same space during the summer, visitors can also enjoy open air cinema screenings.
    Oh and do look out for Lesley, from the youtube channel it'll be fun - Madeira!

    Hi Mike. Thank for creating this great video. My wife and I will be moving into an apartment right next to the Forum at the beginning of January, so your video is really helpful in seeing what to expect in the shopping mall and the local area. Cheers!

      @@leanderian When we first moved here, the location of the apartment at the Forum was really convenient. The Forum is in the Lido Area which is quite touristy. However, many people like that. We stayed there for six months and then moved closer into Funchal to make walking into town easier. However, we still drive to the supermarket at the forum every week to do our shopping. Cheers!

    I was hoping you were going down to the basement so I'd get a glimpse of my Pingo Doce of choice, because I stayed 5 minutes walk from it during my last 6 nights in Madeira, so it was handy for me to pick up my bolo de caco & pastéis de nata before it closed so I could eat them for breakfast!
    I'm not complaining as you showed my areas which I'd yet to discover as well as the beautiful Promenade do Lido; I even half expected you to end it at Praia Formosa!
    Have a lovely week my friends 🤗

      Morning Rue, ah you indeed stayed in a handy place for your bolo de caco & pastéis de nata!
      Happy to show you some new areas and the Promenade do Lido. I have a different walk that goes to Praia Formosa, so thought I'd go left on this occasion.
      Hope all's well with you and you're enjoying the Autumn. I'll be popping by to your channel soon to see what's new.
