Descrição
Explore Los Llanos de Aridane on a private walking tour. Discover the area's history, traditional architecture, and outdoor art with a local guide.
Begin your tour beneath the century-old Indian laurels of Plaza de España. Learn about the history of the trees, which are associated with Palmeran emigrants returning from Cuba.
Continue to the Church of Nuestra Señora de los Remedios and admire the historic tower, volcanic stonework, and the church's artistic links with Flanders and the Americas.
Next, head to the peaceful Plaza Chica, a historic square with a 19th-century fountain, whitewashed façades, and traditional Canary pine woodwork.
Continue to the CEMFAC open-air art collection and admire the contemporary art collection that transforms façades and party walls into an outdoor museum.
See Javier de Juan's monumental work on travel, movement, and the many possible directions that shape a city and its people. Then, admire Carmen Cólogan's Plantain, a symbolic vision of La Palma as a protected garden, with the banana plant representing fertility, cycles of life, and renewal.
Next, see Volcán-Torre de Babel en Los Llanos de Aridane, a pictorial collage linking the Bejenado mountain, Babel, local architecture, sugar, bananas, cochineal, and traditional irrigation.
Admire the contemporary works Sembradora de sueños and Landscape, which explore hope, creativity, land, sea, sky, and the emotional power of color in the urban landscape.
See Fernando Bellver's corten-steel sculpture Cabeza Guanche que mira al sol, which honors La Palma's indigenous past through bold neo-figurative and geometric forms.
Next, see Jorge Fin's Vista de La Palma desde San Borondón, which reverses the famous island legend, inviting visitors to imagine La Palma as seen from the mysterious San Borondón.
Continue to Antonio Gómez Felipe Park, a green urban retreat combining volcanic rock, water, native plants, and organic forms associated with Luis Morera's artistic vision.
Stop at La Gran Ola and the Surrealist World of Hugo Pitti, a stop devoted to expressive contemporary art, where color, fantasy, and urban identity reveal another side of Los Llanos.
Take a brief photo stop at the Welcome to Los Llanos de Aridane sign, one of the town's modern visual landmarks, contrasting historic identity with the contemporary city.
See La Bajada, a geometric pop-surrealism combining multicolored forms, mass-culture imagery, and a contemporary reflection on public space.
Finally, walk through the colorful façades, tiled roofs, wooden balconies, and traditional architecture in the pedestrian heart of the town.
