Set off on a 1-hour walking tour of Vegueta, the Old Town of Las Palmas. Discover its history, its main squares, top monuments and buildings accompanied by an expert guide.
At the indicated time, we’ll meet at the entrance to Tasca La Picadita to begin this guided tour of the Vegueta neighborhood. Are you ready to learn about the origins of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria? Let’s go!
We'll make our way into the maze of little streets that make up the city’s historic center while you admire the buildings of Spanish colonial architecture. Your guide will reveal how everyday life was for the inhabitants of Las Palmas in the fifteenth century, when the city was founded.
The tour will continue through the old town of the capital of Gran Canaria in the Plaza de San Antonio Abad. Here, we'll find a hermitage bearing a plaque commemorating the visit of Christopher Columbus to this island. Wondering what he did here? You'll find out on this tour!
We'll continue the tour of the capital of Gran Canaria by visiting Plaza de Santa Ana. The space is home to eight sculptures of dogs that represent the eight islands of the Canary Islands (including La Graciosa). The archipelago is also known as “tierra de los canes” (land of the canines) due to the enormous number of dogs on each island. These animals are so important that there are even four different breeds from the Canary Islands.
Next, we'll marvel at the Las Palmas Cathedral, also located in Plaza de Santa Ana, one of the most striking temples of the city. Designed in a Gothic architectural style, it was the only cathedral in the Canary Islands until 1819.
After an hour and 20 minutes of sightseeing, we'll end the tour at the Plaza de Santa Ana.
