Trip to Teguise and the Castillo de Santa Barbara. Hotels, beaches, promenade in the tourist resort of Costa Teguise. Town in a large part was designed by Cesar Manriqe - low, typical Canarian buildings perfectly integrated into the natural landscape. I chose the hotel in Costa Teguise because it is the perfect starting point for exploring the island. See more information: Lanzarote tourist attractions.
Teguise - a city in the middle of the island - The capital of Lanzarote until 1852 due to its strategic location.
A small, historic and very pretty town - worth coming here to to walk the streets for an hour or two ...
Teguise is a small but very pretty. Low white houses - a typical Canarian architecture. Cesar Manrique set standards for the appearance of the buildings. There is no here billboards, neon signs and great advertising.
Iglesia de Nuestra Senora de Guadalupe - in the center of Teguise. The city center is not large. You can park your car on the places painted with white paint. Do not leave the car at places yellow and blue.

Pictures of architecture, Teguise
Simple blocks of buildings, white walls, green shutters and a lack of advertising - in such places can feel like a hundred years ago ... well, only those cables ... Teguise is a great place to photograph the the architecture!
Photographing architecture in such places is a real pleasure. The photo of Calle la Cruz, Teguise.
Leaving Teguise road LZ-30 towards San Bartolome on the right you can see an amazing collection of ... everything ... it's hard to describe - you have to see it ...
Castle on a hill of volcanic above the town. Even 1,000 people could shelter there during pirate attacks.
The castle is situated in a strategic point at the top of the volcano. The castle was a shelter for residents of the island from pirate attacks. You can see the caldera of the volcano and the location of the castle on the spherical picture.
Castillo de Santa Barbara (Castillo de Guanapay) on the edge of a volcanic crater over Teguise. The castle can be reached by car from Teguise turning into a side asphalt road from the route LZ-10. See the photo sphere.

There is the oldest castle in the archipelago of the Canary Islands over the city at the top of the volcano. It was built in 1312 - you can enter it and explore. There is the Museum of Piracy - entrance to the castle is paid 3 euros.
There are four partly sandy beaches of Costa Teguise: Playa de los Charcos, Playa de las Cucharas, Playa del Jablillo and Playa Bastian. The photo of Playa del Jablillo.
Lanzarote evenings were really warm in November - the temperature around 20 Celsius degrees and almost no wind - very pleasant.
