One of the most beautiful gardens of Tenerife, the Parque Taoro, is located in Puerto de la Cruz. Take the time to stroll through the garden.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

The garden of the Taoro Hotel and the neighbouring casino premises are about 100.000 m\u00b2 in size. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Parque Taoro is located on the slopes of a volcano above Puerto de la Cruz and offers a stunning view to all those who come up here. The garden once belonged to the best hot\u00adel in town. The Grand Hotel Taoro was opened in 1892 and became one of the largest hotels in Spain. European royals used to frequent the place. A fire in 1929 destroyed the hotel. It was reconstructed quickly but never regained its popularity of years past and was eventually closed. Also, the casino, that wa\u00ads later built in the park, didn\u2019t survive long in its original spot and had to change location. There are plans to rebuild the hotel and open it again. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
