REDICOVERING SPAIN AND ENGLAND

Throughout the past years, Spain and England have consistently been the leading tourist destinations in Europe. A majority of Spain’s visitors formerly arrived due to its mainland cities, but it now attracts greater attention because of its small archipelago—the Canary Islands. On the other hand, England’s capital city of London continues to bring in tourists not only through its old traditions such as Wimbledon but also through its new international food scene ranging from Chinese to Lebanese cuisine.

TENERIFE’S VARIED LANDSCAPES

An archipelago away from mainland Spain, the Canary Islands exhibits a wide and rich variety of landscapes. It includes 7 small islands, the biggest and most populated of which is called Tenerife. Although only a small island, Tenerife visibly stands out for its unique combination of deserts, grasslands, forests, and white and black sand beaches. A local Tinerfeño concisely summed it up as, “visiting 7 continents in one go.”
