Los Llanos de Aridane

Los Llanos de Aridane is a municipality on La Palma in the Canary Islands, located on the western side of the island. The town combines black sand beaches with farming areas and features schools, colleges, and other civic services.

The municipality was established in August 1812 and initially encompassed El Paso and Tazacorte as one administrative area. Over time, these settlements separated and became their own independent municipalities.

The Museum on the Street project displays contemporary art on building facades throughout the town center. Walking through the streets, you can see these colorful works integrated into the everyday urban landscape.

The town is accessible and well-equipped with schools, colleges, and various services. Visitors can find adequate infrastructure and amenities throughout the area for a comfortable visit.

The Llano de Argual district holds four mansions from the 17th and 18th centuries that reveal how water management and irrigation were practiced in the region. These houses show the building techniques and daily life of that era.
