    Betancuria was the capital of the island from 1405 to 1834, but today it is largely uninhabited, forming part of the municipality with the smallest population in the entire Canary archipelago.

    Betancuria was founded in 1404 by the conqueror Jean de Béthencourt, whose name it bears, and his companion Gadifer de la Salle.
    A nice little place; the church of Santa Maria de Betancuria is definitely worth a visit.

    Probably the nicest place in the mountains Fuertes. Restaurants and shops for a break. Or simply stroll through the center. Real local highlight.
