1. Plaza de La Constituci\u00f3n<\/h3>\n

Start your day at Plaza de la Constituci\u00f3n<\/strong>, right in the historic centre of La Orotava<\/a><\/strong>. Locals call it Plaza del Kiosko, and it\u2019s a great spot to snap a few photos while enjoying views over one of the oldest towns in the Canary Islands<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Built in the 17th century, the Church of San Agust\u00edn blends Mudejar, Baroque and Neoclassical styles. Just next door you\u2019ll find the Casa de la Cultura<\/strong>, which used to be the Convent of Nuestra Se\u00f1ora de Gracia<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

2. Liceo de Taoro<\/h3>\n

Not far from the square, you can wander into the gardens of the elegant Liceo de Taoro<\/a><\/strong>. Founded in 1855 as the \u201cFalansterio de Taoro\u201d, it was meant to promote culture and leisure among workers and artisans. Over time, it became \u201cLa Esperanza\u201d, later merged with the Philharmonic society and was renamed \u201cLiceo de Orotava\u201d. It\u2019s been known by its current name since 1924.<\/p>\n

From 1927, access was limited to members of the Sociedad Cultura Liceo de Taoro<\/strong>. That said, I definitely recommend visiting the gardens, the entrance hall, and a few of the front rooms. Wander around and head up the stairs to get one of the best panoramic views of La Orotava.<\/p>\n

If you search for it on Google, you\u2019ll find it listed as “Cafeter\u00eda de Taoro<\/strong>“. So yes, it\u2019s also a caf\u00e9 with great value for money \u2013 perfect for grabbing a drink while enjoying the scenery.<\/p>\n
