Population: 2.09 million. Climatic conditions: Mediterranean climate famous scenic spots: Ted National Park Airport: Tenerife Island Airport, Gran Canaria Gando Airport, etc. Brief introduction, etymology, geography, island list, climate, history, economy, geography, economy, culture, food, introduction of Canary Islands (Spanish: Islas Canarias [_ izlas] Canary Islands, also known as Spanish, is an archipelago under Spanish jurisdiction in the southwest Atlantic Ocean of Morocco. It is one of the autonomous regions of Spain 17, and it is also one of the most extensive special areas in the European Union. The observatory has become a tourist attraction, because it has a subtropical climate, which is warm in winter and cool in summer, and there are attractions such as Mas Palomas and Ted Peak. Clean air and suitable geographical location also make it the location of Roque de Roth Muchacks Observatory and Ted Observatory. The Canary Islands Autonomous Region has two capitals, namely Santa Cruz de Tenerife and las palmas, which are also the capitals of Spanish Santa Cruz de Tenerife and las palmas. Since 1768, except for a short period of 19 10, las palmas has been the largest city in the archipelago, and the second largest city is Santa Cruz de Tenerife. Sancristobal, the third largest city in Lalaguna, is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The etymology "Islas Canarias" probably comes from the Latin "Canariae Insulae", which means "an island with dogs". According to Pliny Sr, King Juba II of Mauritania was the creator of this name, because the latter believed that there were many kinds of big dogs on the island. Another way of saying "dog" is that the word originally refers to a kind of sea dog, that is, monk seal (Latin "canis marinus"), and now this creature has become extinct in the Canary Islands. In addition, there is a saying that Guanqis, a resident of the island, worships dogs. They regard dogs as sacred animals and mummify them. In fact, there is a legend in ancient Greece that there are a group of "kobolds" in the west who live on an island and worship dogs. There is also a saying that this dog worship is related to the Egyptian god Anubis. Geographically, Canary Islands, Azores Islands, Cape Verde Islands, Madeira Islands and Barbarian Islands * * * constitute the Macaro Nia Islands Ecological Zone. Mount Ted on Tenerife is the highest mountain in Spain. Due to the geographical location of the island and the influence of trade winds, the climate is warm and humid, sometimes very dry. There are several local species preserved on the island, such as Dracaena and Laurisilva Illuminated Leaf Forest. Four of Spain's 13 national parks are located in the Canary Islands. This is more than other autonomous regions: Ta Briante hawaii volcanoes national park in La Palma, Galajona National Park in Tenerife Island, and Ted National Park in Lan Sarot Island, a volcanic archipelago on the northwest coast of the African continent. It is about130km from the west coast of Africa in the east and about1100km from Spain in the northeast. These islands are distributed in an arc with a length of about 480 kilometers. It consists of seven main islands and several small islands, such as Tenerife Island, gran canaria Island, La Palma Island, Gomera Island, Ferro Island, Lan Sarot Island, Ventura Island and Fuerte Island, and is divided into two groups: East and West. The total area is 7273 square kilometers. The largest island is Tenerife, with a pyramid-shaped population of 1 367,000 (1982). Most of them are mixed-race Spaniards and locals, who believe in Christianity and speak Spanish. The capital is las palmas. These islands are rugged and mountainous with steep coasts. The topography of the West Island Group is relatively high, and the Ted Peak (active volcano) on Tenerife Island is 37 18 meters above sea level, which is the highest peak. The East Island Group is low-lying, with the highest point less than 730 meters above sea level, namely Lan Sarot Island and Futventura Island, which are closest to the African continent. The climate is mild and dry, and the annual precipitation is only 200 ~ 400 mm. Canary is divided into two island groups: West Island Group consists of Tenerife Island, gran canaria Island, La Palma Island, Gomera Island and Ferro Island, and consists of peaks rising directly from the deep seabed. The East Island Group consists of Lan Sarot Island, Ventura Island, Fuerte Island and six small islands, which rise from a submarine plateau called Canary Ridge, which rises about 65,438+0,400 meters (4,500 feet) from the seabed. The canary islands were formed by volcanic eruption millions of years ago. The highest point of all the islands in the West Island Group is higher than 1, 200 meters (4,000 feet), and the elevation of Elte in Tenerife Island is 37 18 meters (12, 198 feet), which is the highest point in Spanish territory. Gran canaria, the capital of las palmas, is the most densely populated island. Tenerife is the capital of Santa Cruz de Tenerife and the largest and most populous island in the archipelago. Lanzarote, the capital of Arrecife, is the oldest island in the archipelago. La Palma, whose capital is also known as Santa Cruz de la Palma (La Gomera), San Sebastian drago Mera (El Yero), Valverde (Ventura, Fueter) and Rosario, Puerto Rico. The weather is warm and the four seasons change little. In August, the average afternoon temperature in las palmas was 26℃(79_), but it only dropped to 265,438 0℃ (70 _) in June and1October. Rainfall is concentrated in 1 1 and1February, and the rainfall is relatively small, with few people exceeding 250 mm (10 inch) everywhere. The northeast wind alone can reach 750 mm (30 inches). The fertile volcanic soil and mild climate on the island are suitable for all kinds of vegetation. The distribution of plants varies with the terrain. Planting plants suitable for dry and hot climate from sea level to an area about 400 meters (1, 300 feet) high; Crops such as bananas, oranges, coffee, dates, sugar cane and tobacco can be planted in areas with relatively humid or good irrigation conditions. In an area of about 400-700 meters (1, 300-2,400 feet), the climate is similar to that of the Mediterranean, and the main crops are cereals, potatoes and grapes. Above 700 meters above sea level, the climate is quite cool, and trees such as holly, mahogany and laurel are growing. In ancient history, Phoenicians, Greeks and Romans all visited these islands. In 40 BC, King Yuba II of Mauritania sent an expedition here. When he saw many huge dogs on the island, he called these islands Canary Island, which means "Dog Island". The Romans saw the beautiful scenery and pleasant climate on the island, which was also called "Happy Island". In 999, Arabs went to gran canaria to do business. 1404, the French explorer J de Betancourt, with the support of Henry III of Castilla, occupied the three islands of lanzarote, Ventura and Ferro in Furt province, and named them canaries (meaning the king of islands). 1420 to 1479, Portuguese troops invaded Gomera island. 1479 The Treaty of Alcasova transferred the sovereignty of the islands to Spain. By 1496, Spain had conquered other islands. The Canary Islands was originally a province under the direct jurisdiction of Spain. From 65438 to 0927, the Spanish government divided these islands into two provinces. Las palmas governs gran canaria, Fuerteventura, Lan Sarot and three small islands; Santa Cruz de Tenerife has jurisdiction over Tenerife, Palma, Gomella and Ferro. It has been a Spanish colony since 1497. 1927 is divided into two Spanish provinces: Santa Cruz Tenerife in the west and las palmas in the east. The islands were established as an autonomous region on August 1982. The aborigines of the Canary Islands are the concern of Berbers, and now they are extinct. /kloc-In the 5th century, the Berbers were conquered by the Spanish. About 40 BC, King Juba II of Mauritania made an expedition here, and the Romans learned about the Canary Islands. What Juba said is recorded in the works of classical writers Plutarch and Pliny Sr. Pliny Sr. mentioned: "The canary got its name from a large number of dogs in this area." In the 13 and 14 centuries, Genoa, Mallorca, Portugal and French navigators all visited these islands. 1404, Henry III of Castilla appointed Juan de Bettencourt as the king of the islands. Betancourt conquered lanzarote, Ventura and Philo in Fult, and returned to Europe in 1406 and 12, leaving his nephew Marchionte in charge of local affairs. During the period of 1420 ~ 1479, Portuguese troops conquered Gomella. The Treaty of Alcaso of 1479 recognized Spanish suzerainty over the Canary Islands. Spain conquered the rest of the islands in 1496, so the Canary Islands became an indispensable base for the Spanish-American sea route, and Columbus's fleet of four westward voyages was replenished in the islands. 1936, General Franco took this place as the earliest base for his nationalist coup and went to Morocco, Spain. In the 20th century, the population of Tenerife and gran canaria grew faster than that of other islands. The locals speak Castilian Spanish with a slight Andalusian accent, and the ancient expressions peculiar to some islands show that they have been influenced by Portugal. Before 1927, the Canary Islands was a Spanish province. Due to the hostile competition between the two largest ports in the islands, las palmas and Santa Cruz de Tenerife, the Canary Islands were divided into two provinces. Las palmas has Gran Canaria, Ventura, Fult, lanzarote and some small islands, three of which are inhabited. Belonging to Santa Cruz de Tenerife, there are Tenerife Island, La Palma Island, Gomera Island and Ferro Island. The economy of the economic islands has long been dominated by agriculture. Until 1853, wine grapes planted on hillsides without irrigation system were the main products. That year, grape aphids spread in vineyards, and soon grape cultivation was replaced by cochineal production. /kloc-At the end of 0/9th century, the industry of cochineal pigment production declined because it could not compete with synthetic dyes. Instead, it planted bananas, tomatoes, potatoes and other fruits and vegetables. Bananas are the main crops in the Canary Islands, and their competition with foreign products in the Spanish market is protected. Tomatoes are export commodities and grow in165438+June-April. Flower seedling planting is a new industry. Grain mainly depends on imports. Ventura and lanzarote in Fueter mainly grow dry land, while Gran Canaria and Tenerife are irrigated everywhere. Because the land belongs to small landlords, agricultural mechanization has been delayed in some islands. After the Canary Islands produced potatoes 1950, the tourism industry in the islands developed rapidly, and a large number of hotels and government-run hotels appeared. In the tourist season, las palmas and Santa Cruz de Tenerife are the main ports of call, and the off-season is from February to March from 65438. The manufacturing industry in the islands has only small-scale industries except a large number of crude oil processing and refining in Santa Cruz de Tenerife. The Spanish government encourages investment in food processing plants. The population is about 1, 534,897 (1994). Since the 20th century, the economy has developed rapidly and the population has more than tripled. Agriculture is the main sector of the economy, with fertile land, mainly volcanic ash soil. Bananas, dates and sugar cane are produced in coastal lowlands and plains; The terrain is high, mainly planting tomatoes, oranges, lemons and vegetables. Potato and tobacco cultivation are also common. There are also a small amount of wheat, barley, corn, peaches, apricots and grapes. There are a few people in mountainous areas who run animal husbandry. The nearby sea area is rich in fish resources and fishery resources. The refining industry is developed, with an annual refining capacity of over 7.5 million tons; There are also brewing, shipbuilding, fish processing, food and so on. Mainly export tomatoes, bananas, dried fish and canned fish. The climate is pleasant, the scenery is beautiful, there are medieval churches and modern entertainment facilities, and the tourism industry is prosperous, especially in winter and spring. Whenever the Christian Eucharist is celebrated in spring, flower shows are well known in gran canaria and Tenerife. Located at an important crossroads on the Atlantic shipping line, it is an important fuel supply station for ships between Africa, Europe and America. Las palmas, located on the northeast coast of gran canaria with a population of about 290,000, is the largest city, economic center and port in the archipelago. Santa Cruz on Tenerife Island has a large oil refinery and gas station. Other big cities include Tilda, Garda, valverde, Alia and Pahala. The main crop of the Canary Islands-Banana Geography The Canary Islands, Azores Islands, Madeira Islands and Cape Verde together constitute the Macaro Nia Islands Ecological Zone. Mount Ted on Tenerife is the highest mountain in Spain. Due to the geographical location of the island and the influence of trade winds, the climate is warm and humid, sometimes very dry. There are several local species preserved on the island, such as Dracaena and Laurisilva Illuminated Leaf Forest. Four of the Spanish 13 national parks are in the Canary Islands, which is more than other autonomous regions: Mount Tabulente National Park in La Palma, Galahonay National Park in La Gomera, Ted National Park in Tenerife and Timanfaya National Park in Lan Sarot. The economy of Tenerife Auditorium mainly depends on tourism, accounting for 32% of GDP. The Canary Islands receives about120,000 tourists every year. Tropical agriculture, which accounts for nearly 20% of GDP, mainly bananas and tobacco, is planted and exported to Europe and America. Ecologists worry that resources are overexploited, especially in drier islands, but there are still many agricultural resources, such as tomatoes, potatoes, onions, cochineal insects, sugar cane, grapes, vines, jujube trees, oranges, lemons, figs, wheat, barley, corn, apricots, peaches and almonds. Economy is _ 25 billion (200 1 GDP data). These islands have been growing continuously for 20 years until 200 1, with an annual growth rate of about 5%. This increase is mainly due to a large amount of foreign direct investment, mainly the development of tourism real estate (hotels and apartments) and European funds (nearly 65,438+065,438+0 billion euros during the period from 2000 to 2007), because the Canary Islands are marked as a regional target of 65,438+0 (eligible for the Euro Structural Fund). In addition, the EU allows the Canary Islands Government to provide special tax incentives for those who introduce investors to create more than five jobs under the Canary Islands (ZEC) system. In August of 20 14, Spain approved Repsol and its partners to explore the oil and gas prospects in the Canary Islands, and invested 7.5 billion euros in four years, starting from the end of 20 16. Repsol said at the time that the region might eventually produce 654.38 million+barrels of oil a day, which would reach 654.38+00% of Spain's energy demand. However, the analysis of the samples obtained did not show the quantity and quality needed to consider future mining, so the project was cancelled. The Canary Islands has excellent natural scenery, and its climate and beaches make it a major tourist destination, with about 654.38+0.2 million people visiting it every year (in 2007, it was 654.38+065.438+0.986,059, of which 29% were British, 22% were non-Canary Spaniards, and 265.438+0). Among these islands, Tenerife receives the largest number of tourists every year, followed by gran canaria and Lan Sarot. The main tourist attractions of the archipelago are the highest mountain in Spain (Tenerife Island), the third largest volcano in the world (Ted Mountain Range) and Ted National Park, which receives 2.8 million tourists every year. The combination of high mountains, proximity to Europe and clean air makes Rocco Deloose Muchakos (La Palma) a leading space telescope like Grunter Cane. These islands are outside the customs area and value-added tax area of the EU, although they belong to the EU and Schengen area politically. But there is no VAT. The general tax rate of local business tax (IGIC) is 7%, the tax rate is 13.5%, and the tax rate is 3%. Some products and services with basic needs are zero. Therefore, if some products are exported from the island to mainland Spain or other parts of the European Union, import duties and value-added tax are required. Canary time is western European time (wet) (or GMT), and summer is one hour earlier than GMT). So Canary, like Britain, Ireland and Portugal, is one hour slower than mainland Spain. Culture Every spring is the busiest season in the Canary Islands of Spain. Charm and purity, completely different carnival styles, are staged here one after another. Canary Islands Cultural Festival Although the Canary Islands is still 1 100 kilometers away from Spain, it is just a group of small islands located in the depths of the Atlantic Ocean, but it is one of the most famous tourist destinations in Spain. According to statistics, the number of foreign tourists visiting the Canary Islands reaches150,000 every year, accounting for one third of the total number of foreign tourists in Spain. For China tourists, the Canary Islands are known to us, which may be attributed to a name: Sanmao. This is Sanmao and Jose's home in Europe, only 130 kilometers away from the west coast of Africa, where Sanmao created her dream world. The Canary Islands are also the end of San Mao and Jose's life. Sanmao and Jose Cuisine The Canary Islands provide fresh seafood, and most of them are barbecued, with salads such as tomatoes, onions and olive oil, which have Mediterranean flavor and can also enjoy the delicious taste of seafood. Because there are a large number of Spaniards living on the island, you can find many restaurants serving Spanish food in ordinary towns, such as tapas, paella and so on. Due to the geographical location of the Canary Islands, the diet is also deeply influenced by North Africa and South America. There are several dishes with canary characteristics that can't be missed, such as salted baked potatoes. Locals also like to eat it with a seasoning called mojo, which tastes different. Local people regard eating as an important life ceremony and should enjoy it slowly, so the general restaurants are still full at night 1 1.
Where is the rainfall-rich area in the Canary Islands? It is located in the south of the Canary Islands. The south is a humid area with abundant subtropical precipitation. The Canary Islands (Spain's IslasCanarias) is an island group in the northwest waters of Africa, covering an area of 7,273 square kilometers. It is an autonomous region of Spain and a territory of the European Union, with a population of about 2.09 million.
The Pearl of the Atlantic Ocean-Grand Canary Islands (an archipelago consisting of seven volcanic islands) This is a different spring, and the spring in Madrid seems unwilling to come. The end of March is the Holy Week holiday in Madrid. Take this holiday to buy a plane ticket, book a hotel and travel.
Before I went to this island, I learned about this island because of the story of writer Sanmao and her husband Jose, and the beautiful narrative of volcanic island described in writer Sanmao's book. The island described by writer Sanmao in his works was settled by writer Sanmao and her husband Jose for four years, and finally became the island where writer Sanmao lost her husband. Half of the island is barren sand dunes, usually the blue Atlantic coast. At the same time, there are more than 300 craters in the archipelago, which is the "seven shining diamonds in the Atlantic Ocean" written by writer San Mao. The islands are located in the northwest of Africa (Western Sahara Desert).
The destination this time is gran canaria, the biggest star in the Atlantic Ocean (the island is called las palmas in the north and Mas Palomas in the south). Low-cost airlines in Europe are really much cheaper than high-speed rail. It's really a low-cost trip.
When I arrived in gran canaria, I was a little disappointed. The sky is not beautiful. A beautiful archipelago in the Atlantic Ocean has haze! According to the inquiry, it was originally influenced by Morocco and the Western Sahara Desert. Due to the wind direction, the inland haze was brought to this beautiful island. The hotel of this trip is a four-star hotel, located in the north of the island. There is an express train from the bus stop outside the airport to the north and south. The public transportation on this island is really convenient. However, when I arrived at the hotel, I was very disappointed. The facilities of Fadaga Hotel were outdated and there was no reservation website. As for the hearty breakfast described by the guests, most of the hotels should be tourists from North Africa, and few tourists from Nordic countries. The hotel room is also very old, and the toiletries provided are extremely stingy, and they are not changed every day.
Wandering around the hotel on the night of check-in, I have to say the strength of China people. There are many shops in China on this island, so don't worry about the language. There are many China people doing business on this island. The first dinner is Chinese food. The cities in the north give me a poor impression, unlike tourist attractions all over the world.
The next day, after breakfast, I commented that it was booked as "Yimei class", and I left 10 minutes to arrive at the bus terminal in northern las palmas. There is an express bus that goes directly to the southern island to reach playa del ingles. The fare for two people is 12.50 euros. It's only an hour's walk south. It's really a beautiful holiday resort. When you get here, you will feel that you are in an island destination that travels around the world. Strolling in the streets and alleys of southern resorts, all kinds of shops, and Nordic tourists who come here to bask in the sun. The blue Atlantic Ocean, the high lighthouse along the coast, the bars and restaurants along the beach are all white-skinned Nordic tourists. You won't be surprised to see naked sunbathers here, because you can see them everywhere. Even if you don't want to see them, don't stare at others all the time! Of course, there are many naked tourists here, so be careful not to take pictures of others when using photographic equipment. Please pay attention to the tourists who go there. If you want to join in, then act quickly and join the relaxation method close to nature. Of course, you can't just look at these, because there is the most beautiful coastline and the beautiful blue Atlantic Ocean. Listen to the sound of the sea lapping on the shore and walk on the beach that has just been washed by the sea, especially on this island, a desert beach. You really think you're in the desert. When you see the sea, you will think you are in an oasis, because there are a row of white houses walking towards the center. Looking at the mainland, you may have the same "journey". I won't go into details about this scenic spot of many churches.
The public transportation on this island is really developed and convenient. It is more convenient to buy a stored-value card and take the bus. Attention, if you buy a stored-value card, please get on the bus and swipe your card. When you get off the bus, there is also a credit card machine next door. Please get off there and swipe your card when you get off.
