Gran Canaria may mean Great Island of Dogs but you can be sure that your Bargain Holidays to Gran Canaria will be more than what its name suggests. For one, the Gran Canaria is a showcase of some of the best landscapes, desert land, mountain ranges, tropical forests and sand dunes, that you will have a dilemma as to which of these attractions you will explore during your Bargain Holidays to Gran Canaria.
The names of places that you will find during your Gran Canaria Bargain Holidays are very interesting. Take for example Roque Nublo which means "Rock Clouded" in Spanish. This 80-metre tall monolith is one of the islands most famous landmarks and should be your firsts top during your Gran Canaria Bargain Holidays. It is also a historic destination as it was formed 4.5 million years ago out of volcanic eruption. When seen from afar, Roque Nublo seems to be accompanied by a smaller spire which they call El Fraile or the Friar.
Another interesting destination during your Bargain Holidays to Gran Canaria is the Dunas de Maspalomas, which from the name itself, will give you an idea as to its nature. The existence of this attraction here is peculiar considering that they are not common in Spain. The dunes will give you that feeling of being transported to the Arabian Desert during your Bargain Holidays to Gran Canaria. Don't be surprised if you see camels along the way, as these are not Bedouins but tourists who are having a great time.
The Arucas Cathedral should be on your list of Gran Canaria Bargain Holidays destinations as it is the municipality's leading architectural monument and dates back to 1909. Seeing the Reclining Christ carving and the stained glass windows will make your Gran Canaria Bargain Holidays some historical angle. Aside from its massive size, the Cathedral was built using Arucas stone. A trip to Puerto de Mogen for a day visit will lead you to what they call "Little Venice" in this part of the world.
