This 15th-century heart of the city is home to numerous monuments, including the Canary Cathedral and the Casa de Col\u00f3n. We loved wandering through the narrow streets with their colorful buildings and history-laden colonial houses. You&#8217;ll feel the soul of Las Palmas and enjoy the city&#8217;s rich culture. In fact, we&#8217;ve listed this mythical district in <a href=\"https:\/\/canarias-lovers.com\/en\/best-things-to-do-gran-canaria-visit\/#15_Visiter_le_centre_historique_de_Las_Palmas\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">our ideas for the best things to do<\/a> on Gran Canaria!<\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\" https:\/\/photos.smugmug.com\/Canarias-Lovers\/Gran-Canaria\/Las-Palmas\/Old-town\/i-nV2GrwC\/0\/bNv9Fk3q4Cj4cNgCHhngktSf4XD4DD4DRBK28KNv\/L\/las-palmas-gran-canaria-old-town-4-L.jpg\" alt=\"Vegueta district\"\/><\/figure>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Practical advice<\/h3>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Duration<\/strong>: if you&#8217;re visiting the district&#8217;s main points of interest and taking the time to stroll through its typical cobbled streets, allow half a day.

Did you know that it was built in the early Renaissance? This place of worship fascinated us above all for its grandiose, heterogeneous architecture, a symbol of several eras. You&#8217;ll notice that the building has 3 naves and 11 chapels. Carved wooden stalls, Baroque organ, numerous side chapels with remarkable works of art&#8230; So many treasures inside, we didn&#8217;t know where to look! On closer inspection, you&#8217;ll see that the columns are palm-shaped. We appreciated the exotic touch that honors this botanical species with its graphic silhouette. Palm trees adorn the Canaries&#8217; verdant landscapes. Seat of the Diocese of the Canary Islands, the cathedral also houses the Diocesan Museum of Sacred Art. The icing on the cake is the sublime view of the city from the top of the tower!<\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/photos.smugmug.com\/Canarias-Lovers\/Gran-Canaria\/Las-Palmas\/Santa-Ana-Cathedral\/i-bgD5RxF\/0\/C33c7JTWq6Gj9PKz5x2KLD9VrPc52LKTTgSmBDTNt\/L\/santa-ana-cathedral-tower-view-las-palmas-gran-canaria-L.jpg\" alt=\"Santa Ana de Las Palmas Cathedral\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">View from the tower of Santa Ana Cathedral<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Practical advice<\/h3>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Duration:<\/strong> 1h to 1h30 if you take the time to observe the exterior on the square, then the interior with its 3 naves, transept and 11 chapels.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>No particular difficulties, as the site is accessible to wheelchair users with elevators and stairs.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Access<\/strong>: on Plaza Santa Ana in Las Palmas, 1min walk from Casa de Col\u00f3n<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Eating out:<\/strong> from our selection of nearby restaurants in the old town, enjoy gourmet fusion cuisine at Restaurant Que Leche (our favorite) or traditional tapas at Restaurant La Vegueta de Col\u00f3n.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Take a 1-day tour of Las Palmas, including the historic quarter and the cathedral &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.getyourguide.fr\/grande-canarie-l418\/gran-canaria-las-palmas-jardin-botanique-volcan-t127505\/?partner_id=R3GYW4V&amp;cmp=CAL\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener sponsored nofollow\">see the program and book<\/a> now<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Price:<\/strong> free admission to the cathedral during Masses from 8 to 9:30 a.m. and on Sundays, but tour and museum at an additional cost.

Inside a sublime colonial building on the street of the same name, we discovered this museum dedicated to the cultures of the Canaries and the Americas. Did you know that this former colonial mansion, built in the 16th century, once belonged to the 1st governors of Gran Canaria? It was also home to the famous Genoese navigator Christopher Columbus, who stopped off in the Canaries on his journeys across the Atlantic Ocean. With its 13 exhibition rooms, patios and magnificent Ara-colored parrots, this cultural institution in the heart of Vegueta was a real eye-catcher! Between models of sailing ships and reconstructions of the town, old maps, ancient time-measuring instruments, astrolabes and navigational instruments&#8230; The <a href=\"https:\/\/canarias-lovers.com\/en\/visit-museum-casa-de-colon-las-palmas-gran-canaria\/\" type=\"post\" id=\"1322\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Casa de Col\u00f3n<\/a> is packed with magnificent period artefacts, enabling us to learn more about the history of the archipelago and local culture. Our favorites: the ornate, carved wooden ceilings in every room, and the precious treasure of the Catalan Atlas, a collection of illuminated maps dating from the 14th century. A must if you love historical museums and antiques. May seem long to travelers looking only for quick must-sees.<\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/photos.smugmug.com\/Canarias-Lovers\/Gran-Canaria\/Las-Palmas\/Casa-de-Col&#xF3;n-Museum\/i-ZpcPCrv\/0\/CZGvxZ6b2zt2WzNw8Ppp6m2rVD3JjRXZ4zTKtmQnP\/L\/casa-de-colon-museum-las-palmas-gran-canaria-3-L.jpg\" alt=\"Inside Casa de Col&#xF3;n\"\/><\/figure>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Practical advice<\/h3>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Duration:<\/strong> 1 hour<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>No particular difficulties on site, the site is accessible for wheelchair users with elevators.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Access:<\/strong> in the old town near the cathedral; no dedicated parking lot, several underground parking lots 10 minutes&#8217; walk away (Vegueta parking lot rather narrow or 1\u00b0 de Mayo parking lot with larger spaces)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Eating out:<\/strong> from our selection of nearby restaurants in the old town, enjoy gourmet fusion cuisine at Restaurant Que Leche (our favorite) or traditional tapas at Restaurant La Vegueta de Col\u00f3n.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Price:<\/strong> full price \u20ac4; reduced price \u20ac2; free for children under 18<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Opening hours<\/strong>: Monday to Saturday, 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.; Sundays and public holidays, 10 a.m. to 3 p.m.; closed on January 1st and 6th, May 1st, December 24th, 25th and 31st.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>See any updates on the official website <a href=\"https:\/\/www.casadecolon.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">here<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4_Stroll_along_the_seafront_Sendero_Azul\"><\/span>4.

We spotted the Canary Caves, a group of 20 caves that once formed an aboriginal village with a kind of natural watchtower overlooking the entire bay. Did you know that these caves were still inhabited in the 1920s and 1930s? Surprising, isn&#8217;t it! You may be lucky enough to discover another set of 9 caves on this walk, some of which served as dwellings, warehouses and fish processing plants. The walk along the path was really enjoyable, with sublime views of the bay, the island&#8217;s historic heritage and the gradation of blues between sky and ocean. You&#8217;ll see that the walk is made up of several sections with an increasingly steep climb. Finally, the name of this walk struck us as very lyrical. Sendero Azul&#8221; means &#8220;blue path&#8221; in Spanish, due to its proximity to the azure bay.<\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/photos.smugmug.com\/Canarias-Lovers\/Gran-Canaria\/Las-Palmas\/Blue-Walking-tour-Sendero-Azul\/i-bKvJ9wg\/0\/DF693Gqb7vb6MqSzpKW4rbBbmfkTpR3QrHMcw8VRD\/L\/blue-walking-tour-sendero-azul-las-palmas-gran-canaria-2-L.jpg\" alt=\"The Sendero Azul promenade in Las Palmas\"\/><\/figure>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Practical advice<\/h3>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Duration:<\/strong> allow 1h45 to 2h to walk the 7 km of the Sendero Azul (allow 10min to 25min depending on the sections if you walk them separately).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Difficulties:<\/strong> the walk is on a path, with a gradual ascent and some steeper sections depending on the sections taken; also be aware that there are several PRM access points and that pets are not allowed.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Access:<\/strong> on the Playa de Las Canteras and the Bahia del Confital, there are several access points on foot with explanatory signs; there are also 4 parking lots along the path.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Eating out:<\/strong> on the promenade, you are close to many restaurants; our favourite in the area is Restaurant Tabaiba, where you can enjoy gourmet fusion cuisine.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>The Hop-On Hop-Off tourist bus makes it easy for you to get around, stopping at Playa de Las Canteras to take you to the Sendero Azul &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tiqets.com\/fr\/activites-attractions-las-palmas-de-grande-canarie-c65973\/billets-pour-bus-hop-on-hop-off-las-palmas-de-gran-canaria-p977116?partner=region_lovers&amp;tq_campaign=CAL\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener sponsored nofollow\">buy your ticket in advance<\/a>.<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Access is free of charge.

It wasn&#8217;t just the poetic name that drew us in, but our keen interest in the depths of the oceans and the wonders they harbor. The place piqued our curiosity, and we weren&#8217;t disappointed. The tanks are huge, and the variety of fish and marine species is quite impressive. We enjoyed the walk through this almost magical marine world. The aquarium impresses with its huge basins and large panoramic panels. The site also communicates its conservation programs and environmental awareness initiatives. We appreciated the educational dimension of the experience, as the site participates in the conservation and preservation of certain endangered species, fulfilling a mission to raise awareness of environmental challenges.<br\/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tiqets.com\/en\/activites-attractions-las-palmas-de-grande-canarie-c65973\/billets-pour-poema-del-mar-aquarium-de-grande-canarie-coupe-file-p975710?partner=region_lovers&amp;tq_campaign=CAL\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener sponsored nofollow\">Reserve your ticket now<\/a><\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/photos.smugmug.com\/Canarias-Lovers\/Gran-Canaria\/Las-Palmas\/Poema-del-Mar-Las-Palmas-Aquarium\/i-7dP8jx2\/0\/C5tnwBj49GbHLmMSxZTfQjT6SdNDjL2tp2TQcN2DK\/L\/poema-del-mar-las-palmas-aquarium-gran-canaria-1-L.jpg\" alt=\"Poema del Mar Aquarium in Las Palmas\"\/><\/figure>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Practical advice<\/h3>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Duration:<\/strong> 1h30 to 3h on site to visit the 3 floors and 63 zones of the &#8220;jungle&#8221;, &#8220;beach reef&#8221; and &#8220;deep ocean&#8221; sections.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>No particular difficulties, PRM-accessible site, wheelchairs available for hire, one-way tour only; if very busy, it will be difficult to see some of the aquariums.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Access:<\/strong> located near the port and Playa de Las Canteras<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Food &amp; beverage:<\/strong> the site features 3 food and beverage outlets: Restaurant Nestor, where you can admire marine species while enjoying your meal behind the huge mural aquarium; Nemo snack-bar for a snack near the Arrecife exhibition; Caf\u00e9 Lobby for a drink at the entrance to the site.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tiqets.com\/en\/activites-attractions-las-palmas-de-grande-canarie-c65973\/billets-pour-poema-del-mar-aquarium-de-grande-canarie-coupe-file-p975710?partner=region_lovers&amp;tq_campaign=CAL\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener sponsored nofollow\">Save time by opting for a ticket that cuts through the crowds<\/a><\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Price<\/strong>: full price \u20ac18.50; Canary Islands resident price \u20ac13<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Opening hours:<\/strong> open daily from 9:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-genesis-blocks-gb-container box gb-block-container\" style=\"background-color:#fefefe;margin-top:6%;margin-bottom:6%\"><div class=\"gb-container-inside\"><div class=\"gb-container-content\" style=\"max-width:700px\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns inverse is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-8f761849 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column texte_planif is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:58%\">\n<h5 class=\"titre_box\">A LITTLE MORE <span class=\"titre_box_manuscrit\">patience<\/span><\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"font-size:14px\">All the photos, maps, information and addresses you need to make <strong>your stay in the Canaries<\/strong> a success will <strong>soon<\/strong> be available in a single ebook!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:42%\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-genesis-blocks-gb-container ebook-radius-waitlist gb-block-container\"><div class=\"gb-container-inside\"><div class=\"gb-container-content\"><div class=\"wp-block-image ebook-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/loirelovers.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/ebooks_CorseNormandie_FR.png\" alt=\"Box Ebook Corsica FR\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"6_Sunbathing_on_Playa_de_Las_Canteras\"><\/span>6.

This urban beach is Las Palmas&#8217; main beach to the north, with several sections. In fact, we&#8217;ve listed it among the <a href=\"https:\/\/canarias-lovers.com\/en\/best-beaches-gran-canaria\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">most beautiful beaches on the island<\/a>. It&#8217;s a fairly touristy area, where you&#8217;ll be surrounded by seaside nature. A pedestrian promenade, restaurants, brasseries, bars and boutiques enliven this must-see corner of the island&#8217;s capital. Enjoy the space, facilities, bars and restaurants on the waterfront.<br\/>It&#8217;s a good idea if you&#8217;re looking for an easily accessible urban beach with restaurants and atmosphere. Less suitable if you&#8217;re looking for a wild or secluded beach.<br\/>We loved the atmosphere on this beach, whether it was the lively end-of-day entertainment or the calm of the early morning wake-up call. It&#8217;s also the ideal spot for water sports such as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.getyourguide.com\/grande-canarie-l418\/plongee-sous-marine-las-canteras-t316272\/?partner_id=R3GYW4V&amp;cmp=CAL\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener sponsored nofollow\">diving<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.getyourguide.com\/grande-canarie-l418\/las-palmas-sortie-de-snorkeling-de-3-h-a-las-canteras-t214674\/?partner_id=R3GYW4V&amp;cmp=CAL\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener sponsored nofollow\">snorkeling<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/photos.smugmug.com\/Canarias-Lovers\/Gran-Canaria\/Las-Palmas\/Playa-de-las-Canteras\/i-WCR9fdq\/0\/CNm7BkTxkDPbzg8vqw5W7FRnvJPjKvvpZJHWMjjgW\/L\/beach-playa-las-canteras-gran-canaria-2-L.jpg\" alt=\"Playa de Las Canteras\"\/><\/figure>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Practical advice<\/h3>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>All-day <a href=\"https:\/\/www.getyourguide.com\/playa-de-las-canteras-l137908\/?partner_id=R3GYW4V&amp;cmp=CAL\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener sponsored nofollow\">activities<\/a>, children&#8217;s playground, restaurants<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Being a city beach, you must choose one of the city&#8217;s public parking lots, as there are very few parking spaces in the streets around the beach.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Sand beach<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Surveillance in certain areas<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Toilets, showers, sun loungers, parasols, PRM access<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Plenty of restaurants along the promenade, beach volleyball court, children&#8217;s playground<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Close to the Aquarium de Gran Canaria Poema del Mar &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tiqets.com\/en\/activites-attractions-las-palmas-de-grande-canarie-c65973\/billets-pour-poema-del-mar-aquarium-de-grande-canarie-coupe-file-p975710?partner=region_lovers&amp;tq_campaign=CAL\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener sponsored nofollow\">reserve your ticket<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"7_Learn_about_the_history_of_the_Canaries_at_the_Museo_Canario\"><\/span>7.

Established in 1879, this museum houses a rich archaeological collection that has shed light on the archipelago&#8217;s various aboriginal civilizations. The exhibits are permanent, giving you a better understanding of the way of life of the inhabitants before the conquest and colonization by Europeans from the 15th century onwards. Known in particular for its collection of pre-Hispanic artifacts, including human remains and archaeological relics, we found it the ideal place to round off a visit to the archaeological sites, which are often difficult to visualize if you haven&#8217;t had the chance to go there. Ethnography, folk art, island traditions, troglodyte houses, treat yourself to an immersion in local culture.<\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\"

If you&#8217;re a fan of contemporary art, this museum must be on your list! The Centre Atlantique d&#8217;Art Moderne has established itself as a benchmark in the Canary Islands. At the crossroads of several artistic cultures between Africa, America and Europe, we travelled between several works in different forms (drawings, paintings, sculptures, photographs&#8230;). We appreciated the artistic quality of the collections, enhanced by the modern architecture of the building housing these creations. Don&#8217;t forget to visit the museum&#8217;s documentation center. You can consult no fewer than 57,000 books on African and Latin American art and artists!<\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/photos.smugmug.com\/Canarias-Lovers\/Gran-Canaria\/Las-Palmas\/CAAM\/i-vc34d6c\/0\/FfW95kdHNbxbb863SBHB7ZK54GNnbjpBjjcJ6SMrM\/L\/caam-museum-centro-atlantico-arte-moderno-las-palmas-gran-canaria-2-L.jpg\" alt=\"Atlantic Center for Modern Art (CAAM) in Las Palmas\"\/><\/figure>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Practical advice<\/h3>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Duration:<\/strong> 1 hour<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>No particular difficulties, PRM-accessible venue (access via the store)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Access:<\/strong> in the Vegueta district near the Casa de Colon and the cathedral (no dedicated parking lot but several underground parking lots 10min walk away such as the rather narrow Vegueta parking lot or the 1\u00b0 de Mayo parking lot with larger spaces)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Eating out:<\/strong> from our selection of nearby restaurants in the old town, enjoy gourmet fusion cuisine at Restaurant Que Leche (our favorite) or traditional tapas at Restaurant La Vegueta de Col\u00f3n.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Price:<\/strong> free admission<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Opening hours:<\/strong> open Tuesday to Saturday, 10 a.m. to 9 p.m., Sunday 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.; closed on Mondays, public holidays, December 24th and 31st.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"9_Shopping_under_the_arches_of_the_Mercado_del_Puerto\"><\/span>9.

We strolled between the stalls of colourful fruit, flowers, vegetables, knife-cut cured ham and also some very good fresh fish! We really enjoyed the warm, lively atmosphere. In our opinion, this pretty market under the arcades is the typical place to fully experience the local charm of this jewel of the Canaries. Here we met friendly craftsmen and shopkeepers eager to share their island&#8217;s local culture. With tapas bars, local produce, greengrocers and authentic little tables where you can sample local specialities, you&#8217;ll be spoilt for choice! As well as discovering new flavors that delighted our taste buds, we also loved the modern wrought-iron building that houses this traditional covered market. An ideal place to soak up the atmosphere of this vibrant corner of the city. Today, the Mercado del Puerto functions more as a space combining markets, restaurants and tapas bars than as a traditional food market.<\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/photos.smugmug.com\/Canarias-Lovers\/Gran-Canaria\/Las-Palmas\/Las-Palmas-markets\/i-9g5SfMR\/0\/ZbwSmXLGMN35xGqLFRzSRh2qVP7pwQz9rgVPjJN8\/L\/las-palmas-market-mercado-del-puerto-gran-canaria-2-L.jpg\" alt=\"Mercado del Puerto in Las Palmas\"\/><\/figure>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Practical advice<\/h3>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Duration: <\/strong>1h to 2h if you tour the stalls and sit down to eat tapas<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>No particular difficulties identified, pets not allowed in market area<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Access<\/strong>: north of Las Palmas between the port, Castillo de la Luz and Playa de Las Canteras, dedicated parking on site<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Catering: <\/strong>15 on-site catering areas<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Opening hours:<\/strong> food Monday to Saturday, 8:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m.; service Monday to Friday, 9:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. then 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. and Saturday, 0:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m.; catering Tuesday to Thursday, 12:30 p.m. to 3:30 p.m. and 8 p.m. to 11 p.m., Friday and Saturday, 12 p.m. to 4 p.m. and 8 p.m. to midnight, Sunday 12 p.m. to 5 p.m.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>More information on the official website <a href=\"https:\/\/mercadodelpuerto.net\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">here<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"10_Discover_the_Castillo_de_la_Luz\"><\/span>10.

The building visible today was built at the end of the 15th century, but we have learned that its foundations date back to 1402! We began with a tour of this square-shaped fortress. For those of us who love old stone buildings, this was the perfect choice. Its platform could accommodate more than a dozen cannons, but you&#8217;ll see that it was damaged at the end of the 16th century during the Dutch invasion. Its location to the north of the capital, in the port district of La Isleta, made it a strategic defense post for the island. Listed as a national historic monument, the fortress was restored in the late 1990s. We enjoyed the exhibitions with antiques and the 2-storey cultural center. From the inside, we could no longer make out the fort! A harmonious blend of modernity, art museum and remains of ancient ramparts. This touch of authenticity seduced us into immersing ourselves further in the city&#8217;s history. You can also climb onto the fort&#8217;s roof terrace, but we weren&#8217;t able to admire the view as access was closed during our visit.<\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/photos.smugmug.com\/Canarias-Lovers\/Gran-Canaria\/Las-Palmas\/Castle-of-La-Luz\/i-RZPbPD2\/0\/hKX7kwgztVsW2GZqc23WBs668Vzsd8PVkWKxSpR9\/L\/castle-la-luz-las-palmas-gran-canaria-3-L.jpg\" alt=\"Castillo de la Luz in Las Palmas\"\/><\/figure>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Practical advice<\/h3>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Duration: <\/strong>30min to 1h<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>No identified difficulties, flat floor, elevator on site, no pets or bicycles allowed.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Access:<\/strong> located in the north of the city in the port district of La Isleta, Mercado del Puerto parking lot nearby.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Eating out: <\/strong>small restaurants and stalls at the Mercado del Puerto market, a 10-minute walk away,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Price:<\/strong> full price \u20ac4, concessions \u20ac2, free for under-18s and Wednesdays from 4pm to 7pm.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Opening hours<\/strong>: Tuesday to Saturday 10am to 7pm, Sundays and public holidays 10am to 2pm<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"11_Explore_the_Diocesan_Museum_of_Sacred_Art\"><\/span>11.

These collector&#8217;s items illustrate periods from the 16th to the 19th century. We were charmed by the Patio des Orangers, which you can see in the image above. A typically Mediterranean setting, with fruit and palm trees adorning the small orchard amidst the pretty old stone and wood buildings. We really enjoyed admiring the <em>El \u00e1rbol de la vida<\/em> exhibition, which means &#8220;the Tree of Life&#8221; in Spanish. The expression refers to engravings, embroideries, paintings and sculptures, symbolizing eternity. We were also fascinated by antique furniture, such as the above-mentioned 18th-century polychrome wood armoire from the Confr\u00e9rie du Rosaire. Another favorite: the wooden altar lectern with mother-of-pearl, silver and bone inlays.

We spotted the town&#8217;s coat of arms several times in the old town, and in other places near the port and various beaches. It represents several significant symbols for the city. Deciphering the Las Palmas coat of arms echoed our cultural visits and learning about the island&#8217;s history during our stay. If you look closely, the first thing you&#8217;ll notice is a castle or fortification, a reference to Gran Canaria&#8217;s strategic northern location on the Atlantic Ocean. A reminder of the town&#8217;s defensive and military past. Did you also notice the 2 palm trees inside, in front of the waves, and the branches surrounding the emblem? A reference to the verdant landscapes of the Canary Islands covered with this symbolic plant. Note that the emblem is topped by a crown, reminding us that these volcanic lands were conquered in the 15th century under the Spanish monarchy. Finally, lend your eye one last time. &#8221; <em>Segura tiene la palma&#8221;<\/em> is the city&#8217;s motto, inscribed between the coat of arms and the palm leaves. In Spanish, it means &#8220;she holds the palm firmly&#8221; and refers both to the many palm trees in the city of Las Palmas and to the expression &#8220;to win the victory&#8221;. Ready for this treasure hunt?<\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/photos.smugmug.com\/Canarias-Lovers\/Gran-Canaria\/Las-Palmas\/Old-town\/i-dd5MBKt\/0\/DJBcSpZRPctQdBzkLWpVKMRP74xCdBsXMDtNx3kfG\/L\/las-palmas-city-symbol-gran-canaria-1-L.jpg\" alt=\"Sign in the old town\"\/><\/figure>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Practical advice<\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Las Palmas emblem can be seen on signs, street names, in various neighborhoods and on monuments. Look out for the coat of arms, which can take different shapes and colors, and is sometimes inlaid in the town&#8217;s stone walls.

This traditional style, with Andalucia influences from the Renaissance to the 19th century, is characterized by sober, simple moldings and ornamentation.

We recommend avoiding the historic district of Vegueta, where the streets are fairly narrow. Remember to check whether your accommodation is equipped with a parking lot. If not, pay parking lots will be secure. The El Muelle shopping center, for example, has its own parking lot.<br\/>Near beaches such as Las Canteras or Las Alcaravaneras, large free parking lots are available, ideal if you spend the day sunbathing.<\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/photos.smugmug.com\/Canarias-Lovers\/Gran-Canaria\/Las-Palmas\/Town-Canteras\/i-tNcvppL\/0\/Cq4QF42V5kV8RZNf9mZJf2PpPSRnkC9fHTSbknW7V\/L\/car-parking-las-palmas-gran-canaria-L.jpg\" alt=\"parking\"\/><\/figure>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Getting around Las Palmas<\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Las Palmas is pretty well equipped when it comes to transportation. To get around the city easily, consult the &#8220;guaguas&#8221; urban bus routes and timetables <a href=\"https:\/\/guaguasglobal.com\/en\/routes-timetables\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">here<\/a>. If you prefer 2 wheels, Las Palmas has bike paths and a self-service public bike rental system <a href=\"https:\/\/lpavisit.com\/es\/que-hacer\/experiencias\/2455-sitycleta2\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">here<\/a>.<br\/>Finally, to make the most of all the capital&#8217;s attractions, we recommend that you choose the Hop-On Hop-Off tourist bus, which will take you leisurely to the city&#8217;s best points of interest. <strong>\n  <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tiqets.com\/fr\/activites-attractions-las-palmas-de-grande-canarie-c65973\/billets-pour-bus-hop-on-hop-off-las-palmas-de-gran-canaria-p977116?partner=region_lovers&amp;tq_campaign=CAL\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener sponsored nofollow\">Book your ticket<\/a>\n<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/photos.smugmug.com\/Canarias-Lovers\/Gran-Canaria\/Las-Palmas\/Town-Canteras\/i-zmXDmSd\/0\/DDftXbwHgCxPFbv86kM3ZtPwpb3H5TW6VHRzXvnG\/L\/bike-las-palmas-gran-canaria-L.jpg\" alt=\"bicycles\"\/><\/figure>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Where to eat in Las Palmas<\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For us, eating well is an integral part of the travel experience. We have unearthed some very fine restaurants in Las Palmas. Here are our favorites:<\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Restaurant Tabaiba<\/strong>: avant-garde dishes with revisited local produce from the Canary Islands<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Restaurant Que Leche<\/strong>: fusion cuisine based on Canarian specialties blended with influences from elsewhere<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Restaurant Ll\u00e9vame al Huerto<\/strong>: a short menu with simplicity and finesse, all in a friendly atmosphere<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Look out for our article on the best restaurants in Las Palmas!<\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/photos.smugmug.com\/Canarias-Lovers\/Gran-Canaria\/Las-Palmas\/Restaurants\/Que-Leche-Restaurant\/i-VDcstw6\/0\/rjWnV5RbxkTKKprNQRHq6tbjqHvsSFZVzH3BSTG4\/L\/que-leche-restaurant-las-palmas-gran-canaria-L.jpg\" alt=\"Restaurant Que Leche in Las Palmas\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Restaurant Que Leche in Las Palmas<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Visiting Las Palmas in winter<\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you&#8217;re looking for sun in winter, this is the ideal time to discover Las Palmas! Temperatures vary around 20\u00b0C. Our last stay in Las Palmas was in winter, and we took full advantage of the sandy beaches. You can also let yourself be carried away by the local gentle way of life, strolling through the picturesque streets of the historic Vegueta district or exploring the island&#8217;s volcanic landscapes. All attractions, restaurants, hotels and museums are open even in winter. This is a popular destination for tourists from the northern hemisphere, who come in search of sunshine at this time of year. In our opinion, spending winter in Las Palmas is the perfect way to get a taste of summer!<\/p>\n\n<div style=\"margin-top:8%;margin-bottom:8%\" class=\"wp-block-genesis-blocks-gb-container box gb-block-container\"><div class=\"gb-container-inside\"><div class=\"gb-container-content\" style=\"max-width:700px\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-genesis-blocks-gb-container box_titre gb-block-container\"><div class=\"gb-container-inside\"><div class=\"gb-container-content\">\n<h5 class=\"titre_box\"><span>PLAN<\/span> YOUR TRIP TO <span class=\"titre_box_manuscrit\">Gran Canaria<\/span><\/h5>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-text-color has-alpha-channel-opacity has-background is-style-wide hr-box-planif\" style=\"background-color:#ccd3dd;color:#ccd3dd\"\/>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns box_sans_border is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-8f761849 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column texte_planif is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"font-size:14px;flex-basis:60%\">\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Best of<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"ul_box wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"font-size:14px\"><a href=\"https:\/\/canarias-lovers.com\/en\/best-things-to-do-gran-canaria-visit\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Best things to do in Gran Canaria<\/a><br\/><a href=\"https:\/\/canarias-lovers.com\/en\/best-landscapes-gran-canaria-photos\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Most beautiful landscapes<\/a><br\/><a href=\"https:\/\/canarias-lovers.com\/en\/best-cities-gran-canaria-villages\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Most beautiful towns and villages<\/a><br\/><a href=\"https:\/\/canarias-lovers.com\/en\/best-beaches-gran-canaria\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Most beautiful beaches<\/a><br\/><a href=\"https:\/\/canarias-lovers.com\/en\/natural-pools-gran-canaria-lagoons\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Best natural pools<\/a><br\/><a href=\"https:\/\/canarias-lovers.com\/en\/best-archaeological-sites-gran-canaria\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Archaeological sites<\/a><br\/><a href=\"https:\/\/canarias-lovers.com\/en\/best-museums-gran-canaria\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Best museums<\/a><br\/><a href=\"https:\/\/canarias-lovers.com\/en\/meilleures-excursions-bateau-gran-canaria-2\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Best boat tours<\/a><br\/><a href=\"https:\/\/canarias-lovers.com\/en\/hidden-gems-gran-canaria-secret-places\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Secret places, off the beaten track<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-top planif-radius is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:40%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large img-portrait\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/photos.smugmug.com\/Canarias-Lovers\/Gran-Canaria\/Best-of\/i-8qV2fwm\/0\/98eb2a07\/S\/Roque-Nublo-S.jpg\" alt=\"Roque Nublo\" title=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-text-color has-alpha-channel-opacity has-background is-style-wide hr-box-planif\" style=\"background-color:#ccd3dd;color:#ccd3dd\"\/>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns box_sans_border is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-8f761849 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column texte_planif is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:60%\">\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Practical advice<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"font-size:14px\"><a href=\"https:\/\/canarias-lovers.com\/en\/gran-canaria-travel-tips-guide\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">25 tips for a successful trip to Gran Canaria<\/a><br\/><a href=\"https:\/\/canarias-lovers.com\/en\/best-time-visit-gran-canaria-weather\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">When to go?<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"font-size:14px\"><a href=\"https:\/\/canarias-lovers.com\/en\/how-to-get-around-gran-canaria-transport\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">How to get around<\/a><br\/><a href=\"https:\/\/canarias-lovers.com\/en\/renting-car-gran-canaria-tips-experiences\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">How to rent a car in Gran Canaria<\/a><br\/><a href=\"https:\/\/canarias-lovers.com\/en\/driving-gran-canaria-tips\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Driving tips<\/a><br\/><a href=\"https:\/\/canarias-lovers.com\/en\/meilleures-excursions-gran-canaria-2\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Best excursions<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"font-size:14px\">Itineraries: 3 days &#8211;
