Rincon de Triana
#canaryislands
Rincón de Triana near Las Canteras is a cozy spot where Spanish and Mediterranean flavors meet with a creative twist. I loved the gyozas filled with morcón ibérico and mushrooms, served with a smoky kimchi cream—such a unique combination. The ensaladilla with langostinos was another standout, and the slow-cooked cochinillo segoviano melted in my mouth. The wine list is impressive, featuring over 120 selections, many from Spain. The service was warm and attentive, making the whole experience feel special.

It belongs to Spain in terms of territory and faces the African continent across the sea geographically.
Sanmao and Jose moved from the Sahara Desert to Gran Canaria on the other side.
Surrounded by the Atlantic Ocean, the sunshine and beaches are so charming after a week. No wonder so many Nordic people like to spend the winter here.
✅Southwest-Mogan/Morgan Port La Playa de Mogan
▪️Cote d'Azur, many water activities, beautiful sunsets on the sea
▪️Houses are mainly white with embellishments, and flowers are everywhere in the corners of the beautiful port and flower town
▪️Small shops, souvenir shops, and skirts are good and cheap
✅Northern capital-Las Palmas
▪️Colorful houses Mirador de Casas de clors
▪️Best camera position-2 euros to the top of Las Palmas Cathedral Catedral de Santa Ana de Canarias. Pull out the telephoto, one side is colorful houses and the other side is the Atlantic Ocean, and there are ships on the sea. The church closes at two or three in the afternoon
▪️Other attractions in the capital: Case de Colon, the former residence of Columbus; Old Town; Super popular vegetable market Mercado De Papaya closes early
✅South-Maspalomas Dunas de Maspalomas
It was the first time I saw the desert connected to the ocean, and the ocean was at the end of the desert
✅East-Telde Town-Sanmao's Former Residence
▪️Sanmao's Former Residence📍C.lope de Vega 3,35214 playa del Homebre
⚠️It is a private residence where Miko and Juan live. It is not open to the public. Just visit it and try not to disturb them. I just happened to meet them on their way home that day. We greeted each other and took photos and left
▪️Telde Town with colorful houses
▪️Next to the former residence: a few minutes away is the seaside children's playground with Sanmao murals on the wall; men's beach Playa del Hombre and basalt landform coastal fountain cave (EI) Bufadero
✅Southeast: Barranco de Las Vacas Cow Canyon
▪️Like the American Antelope Canyon, it is a red erosion gully, and the huge mountain has been eroded by wind and rain
✅Picode Las Venezia in the middle Nieves
▪️The scenic spot is far away from the mountains and the road is winding. It is recommended to take a one-day tour group
▪️Nearby check-ins: volcanic rock columns formed by the eruption of Roque Nublo volcano; the observation deck overlooking Roque Nublo; the crater bandama; Teror, Tejeda, Arucas town #Spain #Sanmao Former Residence

Hotel Santa Catalina, a Royal Hideaway, Gran Canaria
#cruiseholiday
"We booked Hotel Santa Catalina for a pre-cruise stay in Las Palmas, and it was fantastic! This historic hotel offers stunning architecture, lush gardens, and a relaxing atmosphere. Our room was elegant and spacious, with a private balcony overlooking the beautiful pool area. The location was perfect—close to the beach and just a short taxi ride to the cruise port. The breakfast buffet was outstanding, featuring fresh fruit, pastries, and local delicacies. The service was impeccable, making us feel like VIPs before our cruise. We’ll definitely stay here again for our next Canary Islands cruise!"

Las Palmas Attractions Recommendations
▶️The whole island is very similar to Hainan, with Las Palmas in the north and Maspalomas in the south. The north is like Haikou, with a strong atmosphere of life. The south is like Sanya, with large areas of resorts.
🚄Transportation: Public transportation is convenient, credit cards are accepted, and the price varies from 1 to 5 euros depending on the distance
🛄There are not many attractions, suitable for leisure and vacation, and the price is very friendly compared to continental Europe
❇️📍Address: Las Palmas
🗓️Itinerary:
1️⃣ Cathedral
💰Per capita consumption: Student ticket 4 euros (no ID check), one of the main attractions. 💞Recommendation reason: The church is average, but the view on the second floor is very good, and you can see the sea and residential areas on both sides
2️⃣The square in front of the Plaza de Santa Ana church
3️⃣Columbus House
Specifically displays some stories of Columbus's voyage, including the history of this island, student tickets are 2 euros
4️⃣Canary Museum + some small attractions are nearby, you can visit together. There is a commercial street nearby, the prices are very friendly, short-sleeved shirts are only a few euros‼ ️
5️⃣ Las Canteras Beach + Haishi Aquarium #新年好去处2025
Take a bus north and walk along the long coast. There are various marine activities to choose from. There is also an aquarium, 27 euros per person
💞Reasons to Recommend:
It is a very laid back city, everything in close and you can bike, skate or take the bus anywhere. Las Canteras beach has good weather practically all year round and is big enough to not feel crowded. For an even more private place near the sea, I recommend going to El Confital and enjoying the journey there. Definitely worth it! Gastronomically there are many options to choose from but I'd recommend: papas arrugadas with mojo, gofio and frangollo (all vegan options) 🌱 #canarias #canarias #localguides #beach

Sunlit Las Palmas: A Feast of Food and Architecture
In the sunny days of Las Palmas, Spain, the festive atmosphere is particularly lively. The beach is crowded with people, and laughter and applause intertwine. The azure sea waves gently lap against the golden sands, while sailboats leisurely glide in the distance.
Local food stalls emit enticing aromas, especially the crispy Spanish tapas, which are irresistible. Whether it's seafood, ham, or fresh vegetables, every bite is full of rich flavors.
Don't forget to taste the local specialty drinks here, especially the refreshing Sangria and robust Spanish red wine. These drinks not only taste great but also perfectly complement the flavors of the food.
Walking through the city, the unique architectural style is astonishing. The colorful Canary Island-style buildings, paired with exquisite wooden balconies, exude a rich historical atmosphere. Elegant Baroque churches coexist harmoniously with modern architecture, forming a unique urban landscape. Especially the cathedral, with its magnificent exterior and intricate carvings, captivates visitors, as if telling the story of the city.
As the sun gradually sets, the entire city is enveloped in warm golden light, and the sea sparkles with shimmering waves. At this moment, the charm and culinary beauty of Las Palmas are truly mesmerizing.
