Abaco

Abaco Mansión Canaria

Abaco, Mansión Canaria, is an 18th century Canary Mansion House on the outskirts of Puerto de la Cruz in Tenerife.

I was there for a concert by A Ritmo de Tango in the salon.

The concert was fantastic, but even if it had not been it would have been worth it to see the house.

I was not aware of Abaco, let alone knew where it was.

I asked and was shown a map. It gave me the rough direction, but was off the map.

I hopped in a taxi. Up through La Paz, past the Botanic Gardens, then turned off into a side road, winding up the hill. Then there it was, a very impressive Canarian Mansion House.
