Located in the north of Tenerife Island in the Canary Islands, Spain, the Botanical Garden is a popular destination that blends history, science, and natural aesthetics.

The garden is lush and home to tropical and subtropical plants from around the world, particularly species from the Arecaceae, Bromeliaceae, and Araceae families. The plants here are notable for their beauty, size, rarity, or remote origins. Strolling through the garden, visitors can admire various beautiful flowers and ancient trees, experiencing the tranquility and harmony of nature. Additionally, the garden features a dedicated herbarium that showcases plant resources unique to the Canary Islands, offering plant enthusiasts ample opportunities for learning and research.Puerto de la Cruz · 12.2 km from El Sauzal
Basilica of Our Lady of Candelaria
Basilica of Our Lady of Candelaria is located in the town of Candelaria on the island of Tenerife in the Canary Islands, Spain, and is one of the most important Catholic pilgrimage sites in the region. This church is dedicated to the Virgin of Candelaria, who is considered the patron saint of the Canary Islands. Legend has it that around 1390, the Guanches, the ancient inhabitants of the island, discovered the statue of the Virgin on the beach. Following the Spanish conquest, the statue was placed in the Cave of Achbinico, which became a local pilgrimage site. The current church blends Neoclassical and regional architectural styles, featuring a three-nave structure and a 25m high dome. Its 45m high bell tower has become one of the landmarks of the town of Candelaria. Every year on February 2 and August 15, thousands of pilgrims arrive to celebrate the Feast of the Virgin. The Basilica of Our Lady of Candelaria is listed as a cultural heritage site by UNESCO and was elevated to the status of a minor basilica by Pope Benedict XVI in 2011.Candelaria · 15.1 km from El Sauzal

Tenerife
Tenerife is located in the Canary Islands, and is the archipelago's largest island by area and population. The capital,Santa Cruz, sits on the northeast coast. The island rises in terraces from the shore toward the center and, from a distance, looks like a pyramid pulled up from the Atlantic; its summit is the Teide volcano, which rises to more than 3,700 m above sea level. It is higher than any peak on the Iberian Peninsula and, if measured from the seabed, reaches over 7,000 m. Surrounding the volcano, Parque Nacional del Teide is blanketed in black lava and colorful volcanic tephra, its landscape resembling the moon and Mars, and the unique geological landscape has attracted space agencies to carry out related research here; the summit is snowcapped in winter, and on clear nights it is an excellent place for stargazing, while the beaches at the mountain's base remain warm, so one island contains multiple climate zones. The island's north and south faces are sharply contrasted: the north shore is windward, rainy, and lush year-round, and the Anaga mountains in the northeast hide ancient laurel forests shrouded in mist, which attract hikers; the south shore is leeward, dry, and sunny, and most resort beaches are concentrated there. Off the southern coast, pilot whales and common bottlenose dolphins reside year-round, and boat trips often encounter them; on the west coast, giant cliffs rise hundreds of meters from the sea, and the old village of Masca deep in the Teno mountains is tucked at the end of a steep valley, making it a classic stop for a self-drive island tour. The Santa Cruz carnival in late winter to early spring, known for its elaborate parades and street bands, is one of the island's signature cultural events.Orotava Valley · 27.9 km from El Sauzal
