Did you know the Canary Islands are named for Dogs and not little yellow Birds ?The Church of San Francisco dates back to the 18th century. It’s adjacent convent now houses The Museum of Fine Arts.Like many Cruise Ship ports, Tenerife offers a variety of activities for tourists, Bingo Parlors, Casinos and Shopping !The theater Circulo de Amistad of Santa Cruz de Tenerife opened in 1904. Architecturally, it is a curious building where the bourgeois architecture of the XIXth century and the Art Nouveau architecture of the Canary Islands meet. The building houses a social organization known as “The Recreation” where members enjoy dominoes, swimming, card games, volleyball and a myriad of other sports and activities.Just a few steps off of the Calle Castillo, I found this unusual building.Balconies were on almost every building I saw.
