Азорские острова - край вулканов и гортензий.

Название островов, скорее всего, происходит от устаревшего португальского слова «azures», что буквально означает «голубые». Синего цвета и его оттенков здесь и впрямь много, особенно в мае и начале июня, когда острова покрываются цветущими гортензиями. Жители острова Флорес даже ходят на работу через поля диких гортензий. Азорские острова – это рай для тех, кто любит природу.

The Azores are a land of volcanoes and hydrangeas.

The name of the islands most likely comes from the obsolete Portuguese word "azures", which literally means "blue". There really is a lot of blue and its shades here, especially in May and early June, when the islands are covered with blooming hydrangeas. Residents of the island of Flores even walk to work through fields of wild hydrangeas. The Azores are a paradise for those who love nature.
