Elder Museum of Science and Technology
Four storey museum full of playful exhibits that explain technical issues in an amusing way. Adults enjoy this museum as well as the kids do.
Alfredo Kraus Auditorium
Extraordinary building constructed of volcanic rock – the building is a masterpiece itself. Take a guided tour or attend cultural events.
St. Ann Cathedral
The oldest church at the island built in a mixed yet impressive style. Its south tower is the best place to see the city from above.

The main shopping avenue in Gran Canaria associating the most exclusive shops. Showcase of the city with several architectural gems.

Beautiful ornamented building where, legend has it, Columbus stayed when he had his boat repaired. Exhibition of artefacts related to marine.
Botanical Garden of the Canaries
Probably the largest botanical garden in the whole Spain. Beautiful layout with rich vegetation includes many rare species.

Something like an open-air museum, this “village” complex designed by Néstor promotes the traditional life and crafts.
Atlantic Centre of the Modern Art
Exceptional modern museum predominantly dedicated to the Canarian artists, but hosts interesting international exhibitions as well.
Las Canteras Beach
Beautiful sandy beach running right along the centre of Las Palmas. It is protected by a natural reef, therefore the waves are mild.
