Guía de Isora : ubicació i entorn d'aquesta propietat

Guía de Isora is a municipality on Tenerife, located in the south-west of the island. It covers an area of 143.43 km2 with 17 different villages. The coastal area includes the small fishing neighbourhood of Playa San Juan, which has developed into a quiet tourist area. Together with Alcalá, Varadero, Piedra Hincada, Aguadulce, Fonsalía and Cueva del Polvo make up the municipality 's 15 kilometres of coastline. Inland are the towns of Guía de Isora, 580 metres above sea level, Chío, Tejina, El Pozo, Acojeja, Aripe and Chirche. Chiguergue, Vera de Erques, El Jaral and Las Fuentes are located in the upper part of the municipality. The Tejina mountain, a natural monument, is located in the municipality of Guía de Isora. It reaches a height of 1,055 metres and hides corners of great archaeological value. The springs of the Tágara ravine are another of the municipality 's attractions. The historic centre of Guía de Isora was declared an Asset of Cultural Interest in 2009, as its streets are home to numerous buildings that are representative of traditional Canarian architecture. Most of these buildings are located in the streets Calle de Abajo, Calle de Arriba, Calle Tagoro and La Vera. The layout of these alleyways corresponds to the typical layout of the old neighbourhoods, with different widths and irregular shapes. Other traditional elements, such as the washing places, were central to the daily life of the villagers until a few decades ago and can still be found today as part of the cultural heritage of the municipality.
