Tenerife Photos by Hetty
28th February 2018 for 1 week
We stayed at Puerto de la Cruz and had these views from our balcony
We could see Mount Tiede, the volcano in the centre of Tenerife, and Spain’s highest mountain – over 12,000ft. It last erupted in 1909
We were near the beach
There are some old parts of Puerto de la Cruz
Lime kilns
Anglican church 1890
Waterfall in front of the former Casino and Hotel Taoro, which is high up on the side of a volcanic cone
Puerto as it used to be
View from the terraces
Back down in the town
A dragon tree by the 17th century church
Fountain in front of the church at Plaza de la Iglesia
Inside the church
The old part of the town
Back-left is the former customs house, built in 1620, now tourist office
The port is tiny, so there are cranes to lift boats out of the water. This was the port for La Orotava
Modern art on old buildings
And crochet!
Tower by the beach
