EXPLORE TENERIFE
Museums, streets, and corners that hold the memory of Tenerife.
Tenerife preserves its history in every corner: in the old towns, in the manor houses, in the museums, and in the trades that still endure. Exploring it is also traveling in time, among convents, estates, churches, and roads that have seen generations pass. From La Gañanía, we invite you to discover those places that explain who we are and how the island has managed to keep its identity alive.
