Free Tour Las Palmas - Triana and Vegueta exploring the history of the Canary Islands in 3 hours
The tour lasts 3 hours
Available in Spanish
Description
**Las Palmas de Gran Canaria was founded over five centuries ago on the banks of the Guiniguada. Today, Vegueta and Triana form the historical heart of a city that became a major meeting point between Europe, Africa, and America.**
On this free tour, we will walk through its streets, squares, and main architectural gems to discover how a Castilian foundation from 1478 ended up becoming a city open to the Atlantic and connected to the world.
Through its **history, architecture, commerce, and culture**, you will learn the keys to its evolution and the stories hidden behind some of its most emblematic buildings and corners.
We will also discover the close relationship between **Gran Canaria and Seville** and the deep historical and cultural ties between **the Canary Islands and America**.
All this while we enjoy something I like to define as **visual poetry transformed into architecture**.
**Book your free tour through Vegueta and Triana and discover more than five centuries of history in the heart of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria.**
