A must-see Tenerife location for those who want peace and harmony

Inside the Teide National Park in Las Cañadas in Tenerife you will find an extraordinary natural platform from where you can contemplate the skies. The area is known as a Starlight Tourist Destination, and you can observe constellations and stars from almost any part of the park. It is also possible to view the stars at a professional level using the equipment of the IAC, the Canarian Institute of Astrophysics. Easy to get to by road, visitors can find their own viewpoint or use one of the official ones with parking alongside. There are toilets and a restaurant at the Parador Nacional (part of a national string of tourist hotels) and El Portillo is also close by.

The Naval Museum is located inside the Barco de la Virgen—a boat—in the Plaza de La Alameda in Santa Cruz de La Palma, the island´s capital. It is an exact replica of a caravel, made in 1940 for the Descent of the Virgin Procession during the local festivities called the Fiestas Lustrales. From then on, this emblematic space in the city has become one of the most outstanding museums in La Palma. Inside is an important collection of objects from naval history, such as navigational instruments, models and graphic documentation of great historical worth. Five centuries are summed up in an intense, exciting tour.
