What to do and see in Lanzarote, Canary Islands: The Best Churches & Cathedrals

December 15, 2021 Karren Gelb

Ahhh, Lanzarote: The Canary Island paradise where you can ride a camel into the sunset and then dine inside a candlelit cave. The rock formations of Los Hervideros will take your breath away, as will the views from the Mirador del Rio lookout point. Legend has it that locals would hide from pirates in the underground caverns of Cueva de los Verdes, which are now open to curious visitors. Above ground the Jardin de Cactus will teach you all about the spiny desert plants.

Nuestra Senora de los Dolores - Mancha Blanca

Reviewed By Beowulfito - Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, Spain

It does not matter what's your religion. This old chapel is believed to have been built because people prayed the 'Dolores Virgin' to stop the lava flow, and She did, according to the legend. As a favour, they constructed this shrine.

If in Yaiza, this church is worth a look in even if just for a quiet moment on a hot day. Quiet, peacful and you cannot help but relax and think as you sit there surrounded by history.

Iglesia de Nuestra Senora de Guadalupe

Reviewed By itchyfeet2014 - Glasgow, United Kingdom

This really is unmissable. The location and architecture is outstanding. The Church is beautiful both inside and out. Clean, simple decoration inside the Church. There are two small curved marble staircases either side of the altar. This is facing a huge organ at the back of the Church. It looks much bigger inside than from the outside.
