In this case, the first stop should be La Orotava, one of the most authentic villages of the island. Its majestic appearance is reflected in some of the most interesting places. Our suggestions? Take a walk around the Liceo Taoro, Jardines Victoria, La Casa de los Balcones and the town hall itself. Walking across its streets will make you feel like time stops.
