Arucas

posted by cstainforth on 23 December 2010 at 16:44

Before settling down on the beach for a week my girlfriends and I decided to take a mini-tour of the island and see some culture and nice things, the best stop being Arucas. Delightful town with lovely architecture and a gorgeous botanical garden. The views aren't bad either.

Right in the north of the island, just a bit inland

La Vegueta

posted by wllora on 7 December 2010 at 12:15

I'd highly recommend spending a morning or afternoon in the Vegueta district of Las Palmas at the start or end of your holiday. There's so much to see, the Bishop's Palace is so ornate and interesting, and Santa Ana Cathedral is lovely. Sadly we didn't have time for Columbus's stopover house at Casa de Colon but there's always next time.

The old district of Las Palmas, which lies towards the south of the city

Galdar, Plaza de santiago

posted by yevans on 26 November 2010 at 15:33

galdar is in the shadow of a volcano suspiciouly like a miniature mount teide of tenerife, but don't let that put you off! This square is the highlight of the town, with lovely trees including the oldest dragon tree on the island, and some wonderful architecture in the form of iglesia de santiago de los caballeros, and casa consistorial. Loved sitting here and watching to world go by.

at the northern tip of the island, just off the GC-2
