My delightful trip to Lanzarote

Sunday, July 10th, 2011
Lanzarote is really bizarre. I’ve been there last year in March, the best month to travel there, I think. Lanzarote is the fourth largest of the Canary Islands and is located in the north-east of Fuerteventura. The island has a dramatic landscape: no trees, no bushes, less water. What’s interesting about Lanzarote is its volcanic origin, its volcanic lakes and caves. Volcanic Cave I’ seen a lot during the fourteen days and all the time I seemed to be on the moon and sometimes was surprised to see the ocean next to me. But nevertheless the meagre island has vegetation: Cactuses! Cactuses in all shapes you can imagine! Some of them were in full bloom! Once I made a tour through the famous winegrowing area La Geria. There were deep semi-circular cones made of black volcanic ash with lush ...

César Manrique special

Sunday, March 1st, 2009
Besides its vulcanos, Lanzarote is also well known for its outsandig arts and artist. One of them and probably the most popular is César Manrique. The artist and architect was born on April 24th, 1919 in Arrecife, wich is a small town in east of Lanzarote. He grew up in San Ginés lagoon and attended to University of La Laguna. In 1945 he changed and went to a Art School in Madrid.
César Manrique immensly affected the planning regulations of lanzarote, because he saw the potential of natural tourism. He developed the tourism in Lanzarote, how it is know now.
