Tenerife. Its overall extension is 57.5 km. It offers a great

compilation of contemporary buildings and pure nature.

You can go on walks or shopping on the lovely small stream-

ing streets. If you are a fan of nature’s power you can visit

The Dragon Tree, the beautiful viewpoints or just go to the

beach. Over 50% of the territory of the land is protected by

the environmental law. The outstanding beaches offer great

opportunities of practicing extreme sports. The hanging

mountain Tigaiga gives a romantic charm to the

municipality. Another interesting fact is that the

municipality is home to the first church built on the island –

Iglesia de Santiago (1496). Great view and calm, Los

Realejos is the best place for your holiday.
