Tenerife is the largest of
the seven Canary Islands, as well as the most visited
island by tourists. Thanks to its stunning black and
gold beaches, an active volcano, its unique ecological
diversity, and its charming cities over cliffs, it is
not surprising that this is the most popular island
among the Canary Islands.
If you want to have a date,
you can do many things in Tenerife together. |
|
1.
Orotava Valley
The Orotava Valley is
almost immediately adjacent to the chain of peaks of Las
Cañadas, which when viewed from a height forms an almost
perfect square. Orotava appeared due to the descent of
fossilized lava rocks, the remains of which bend around
the eastern and western extremities of the valley.
Today, the former stronghold of the conquistadors is the
unspoken capital of the valley, which is dotted with
hiking trails.

2. Loro
Parque
Do you know
after first date rules? One of them states that the
date should leave pleasant memories. And Loro Parque
will definitely help you with this. Translated from
Spanish “loro” is a parrot. Initially, this place was a
park of parrots. Today Loro Parque is one of the most
visited places in Tenerife with the world’s largest
variety of parrots, penguins, an aquarium with sharks,
dolphins and seals, gorillas, a zoological garden and
entertaining shows that will be interesting not only for
children.
3.
Botanical Garden
This is a green oasis that
promises the desired coolness and pleasantly diversifies
a beach holiday on a deserted and sun-heated coast. It
is quiet and calm. In the shade of huge trees, you can
find many cozy places, and everything around is buried
in the aromas of flowers and exotic plants. The first
seedlings were planted in the Botanical
Garden of
Tenerife in 1792, and now you can see many rare plants,
huge collections of orchids and cacti, palm, tulip, and
rubber trees.

4. Taoro
Park
In the heart of old
Puerto de la Cruz, on a sloping hill, Taoro Park is
located. It is a perfect place for a leisurely, quiet
walk away from crowds of tourists. The green lungs of
Puerto de la Cruz are conditionally divided into three
zones: the first pride is the observation deck, which
offers the best urban panorama in the area; the second
got its name in honor of the casino, which is located in
the luxurious building of the oldest hotel in the
archipelago; and the third zone is the corner of
athletes and fans of jogging.
5.
Natural pools El Caleton
Surprisingly beautiful
reservoirs that adorn the city of Garachico appeared due
to the volcanic activity of Montagna Negra. According to
surviving records, the first landslides were observed
here as early as the seventeenth century. Then the
disaster took many lives and almost destroyed a part of
the city. The remains of the buildings were buried under
a layer of lava. Red-hot streams melted the stone,
forming hundreds of small lakes of the original form.
The bottom of the reservoirs consists of black stones,
which solidified, reaching in a liquid state at a
certain moment.

6.
Monkey Park
A small but very
interesting
park in which monkeys, lemurs, guinea pigs, turtles,
parrots, iguanas, and other animals live in open space,
and therefore, visitors can communicate with them.
7.
Guimar Pyramids
This is an archaeological
site, which is still quite interesting as an element of
ancient Spanish culture. There are facts indicating that
the pyramids were built by the natives in the middle of
the XVII century. Those who are keen on history will be
interested in visiting the ethnological park located
here with a museum, photo exhibition, and expositions
dedicated to the studies of Tour Heyerdahl.
