Tenerife

In the town of Buenavista del Norte, the streets hide sober architecture of clearly Andalusian extraction. Nevertheless, apart from the influence of the Conquistadors, in Buenavista there is a mixture of the traditions of Portuguese inhabitants and of Guanches, as the pre-Hispanic natives were known, which have helped to make up the particular charm of this district.

The people have, due to the scarcity of resources, been characterised by an unquenchable spirit of conservation, which has kept alive traditions such as craftwork in bone, wood, cane and straw.

The highly varied territory of this district of the island of Tenerife gives innumerable opportunities to enjoy nature and walking.
