View over the fields and gardens of Fajã Quebrada Nova, located at the bottom of a 500 m high, near-vertical cliff overcome by a cable car. Use of the scarce space at the bottom of the cliff enables the farmers to grow different crops than can be cultivated at higher elevation in the direct surroundings of Achadas da Cruz.
