The Monte Palace Tropical Garden is a beautiful botanical garden located in the Monte district of Funchal, Madeira, Portugal. It was originally created in the 18th century as a private garden for the British consul, but was later transformed into the magnificent public park it is today by a Portuguese millionaire in the 20th century.

The Monte Palace features stunning views of the city of Funchal and the ocean, and is home to a collection of exotic plants and trees from all over the world, as well as numerous fountains, lakes, and sculptures. The garden also houses a small museum featuring African and Indo-Portuguese art, including a collection of Zimbabwean stone sculptures.

One of the most unique features of the Monte Palace is its collection of tile panels, with over 1,000 pieces from the 15th to the 20th century. The panels depict historical events, landscapes, and scenes from daily life in Portugal, and are a remarkable display of the country's art and cultural heritage.
