The vantage points offer breathtaking views not only of the ocean, but also of the town of Santa Cruz and the Anaga mountain range.  <\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/photos.smugmug.com\/Canarias-Lovers\/Tenerife\/Santa-Cruz-de-Tenerife\/Palmetum\/i-LZFBzW3\/0\/KT7LBpwRCwP7Hk4PD4qrXPpK6KMDtDNchLHdHjcXz\/L\/city%20view%20palmetum%20santa%20cruz%20tenerife-L.jpg\" alt=\"Palmetum - Panoramas\"\/><\/figure>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The garden&#8217;s elevated position, perched on a man-made hill, makes it possible to admire these 360-degree views. You&#8217;ll particularly appreciate these moments of contemplation, which add an extra dimension to your visit.<\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/photos.smugmug.com\/Canarias-Lovers\/Tenerife\/Santa-Cruz-de-Tenerife\/Palmetum\/i-Tx5VTVp\/0\/Kk7TbkXRM42gFsDx9CSM2F5TQMkGHh2k739RxMLXQ\/L\/ocean%20view%20palmetum%20santa%20cruz%20tenerife-2-L.jpg\" alt=\"Palmetum - ocean view\"\/><\/figure>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"An_extraordinary_botanical_journey\"><\/span>An extraordinary botanical journey<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Majestic, imposing trees<\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Beyond the palms, we were amazed by the diversity of the Palmetum&#8217;s remarkable trees. The baobab tree of Madagascar immediately catches the eye with its impressive silhouette, while the Ficus religiosa rises majestically to a height of more than 15 meters, making it one of the most imposing trees in the park.<\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/photos.smugmug.com\/Canarias-Lovers\/Tenerife\/Santa-Cruz-de-Tenerife\/Palmetum\/i-Bj2qfQK\/0\/MQ6gwLpkqf7qtsq5qrjck8Sx4NpVK9D35C43pN6qK\/L\/big%20tree%20palmetum%20santa%20cruz%20tenerife-L.jpg\" alt=\"Palmetum - Majestic trees\"\/><\/figure>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Mature mangroves, with their characteristic stilted roots, thrive in the main basin and produce floating seeds. Don&#8217;t miss the Araucaria columnaris grove, an impressive collection of around 50 trees native to New Caledonia, which grace the hillside.<\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/photos.smugmug.com\/Canarias-Lovers\/Tenerife\/Santa-Cruz-de-Tenerife\/Palmetum\/i-LJz9PRW\/0\/MMhWPkJ2rVB78HMkVBXPMhmHvSKGzQCDrdxPdNXm2\/L\/mangroves%20palmetum%20santa%20cruz%20tenerife-L.jpg\" alt=\"Palmetum - mangroves\"\/><\/figure>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The tropical greenhouse and its treasures<\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The &#8220;Octogono&#8221; greenhouse nestles in the heart of the Palmetum. We loved this unspoilt space, home to the garden&#8217;s most delicate species in a controlled tropical environment. Water basins, bridges and waterfalls create a particularly immersive atmosphere. You&#8217;ll see a variety of plants flourishing in this small wet jungle, making this structure one of the park&#8217;s most remarkable features.<\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/photos.smugmug.com\/Canarias-Lovers\/Tenerife\/Santa-Cruz-de-Tenerife\/Palmetum\/i-6G65WQm\/0\/KhdwSTgsRrtRKRvgS42bVgrSTvwh9W2nZxJfTfVqh\/L\/octogono%20palmetum%20santa%20cruz%20tenerife-L.jpg\" alt=\"Palmetum - Tropical greenhouse\"\/><\/figure>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"A_walk_that_raises_awareness\"><\/span>A walk that raises awareness<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A mission of preservation<\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Palmetum has made the conservation of palm species its top priority. We admire the ecological commitment of the site, which has completely banned the use of herbicides and pesticides. Irrigation is provided by recycled municipal wastewater, demonstrating an exemplary sustainable approach. The garden also plays a crucial role as a research center, highlighting the ecological importance of palms and actively contributing to their preservation. Numerous animals have naturally made their home here, including birds.<\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/photos.smugmug.com\/Canarias-Lovers\/Tenerife\/Santa-Cruz-de-Tenerife\/Palmetum\/i-JSZwCvM\/0\/KwNxDvfrfvR59PF6FDmv4w3WGCwDjXNK9vL79Pf5f\/L\/durability%20palmetum%20santa%20cruz%20tenerife-L.jpg\" alt=\"Palmetum - Preservation mission\"\/><\/figure>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Environmental education<\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The garden fulfills its educational mission thanks to its unique collection and clearly identified biogeographical sections. We particularly appreciated the many information panels along the way, helping visitors to better understand the importance of preserving these species. During your visit, you&#8217;ll discover how the site contributes to raising public awareness of current environmental issues, while presenting concrete solutions for a more sustainable future.<\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\"
