Most Beautiful Part of Las Palmas

Vergueta is the most beautiful district of Las Palmas. Easy to get to from Las Palmas Centre (no 1 bus 1.40euros) What to visit - start at the Tourist Information Office where the lovely Patricia will give you all the information that you need. We recommend wandering round the streets and Plaza de Santa Ana, the cathedral, the Casas Consistoriales, the market, the Plaza del Espiritu Santo for its fountain, the Casa Colon, the Ermita de San Telmo, lunch ar Foodismo (a great little cafe by the market), then wander to Triana, the next district ten minutes walk away. Easily two days entertainment here.

    Old town charm
    This lovely area of Las Palmas is a pleasure to wander around and admire the beautiful squares and historic buildings. Also some fabulous artisan type shops selling good quality items, like Polaroid sunglasses that are made on the island, jewellery and other local products. For refreshments we visited a great cafe in the square by the theatre that served fantastic fresh orange juice.

    Worth wandering around
    It was a rainy day, otherwise this would have been an excellent day. The little back streets with bars, cafe's and bodega's was a pleasure to potter around getting a really good feel about the place. Cathedral is well worth a visit, stunning and peaceful inside. We had travelled up for the day from Puerto de Mogan, but saw enough of Vegueta and las Palmas that if visiting Gran Canarias again we would spend a couple of nights here to enjoy the bars and bodegas of Vegueta. Don't miss pottering around the fruit markets
