<\/span>Is a visit to the El Huerto de las Flores botanical garden worthwhile?<\/span><\/h2>\n\n

Yes, it’s worth a visit. This 3000m2 garden may be small, but we think it has a certain charm! In the 19th century, the garden’s owners, the Armas family, imagined a tropical garden gathering seeds from every continent, especially America. We admired more than 200 exotic plant species, including macadamia (the Australian hazelnut to which Claire is allergic…), maracca, mammee… Enough to delight botanical enthusiasts and artists alike. Canary Islands poet Saulo Tor\u00f3n, for example, came here for inspiration.<\/p>\n\n

The garden is one of the most beautiful places to visit in Agaete<\/a>!<\/p>\n\n

<\/span>What you can see<\/span><\/h2>\n\n

A pebble-walled entrance<\/h3>\n\n
\"Wall\"\/<\/figure>\n\n

As soon as we entered, we noticed the pebble wall covered with white lime, typical of Gran Canaria. It surrounds the garden and gives it real local color!<\/p>\n\n

Large exotic trees<\/h3>\n\n

In the center of the garden, venerable trees from distant horizons flourish! We were impressed by the large Argentine ombu and the astonishing Asian banyan tree.<\/p>\n\n
