“We expect a significant influx of people and, in this way, we will give tourism a different perspective. We want to go beyond sun, beach, climate or gastronomy; now we are incorporating the urban landscape as a key element,” said Mayor and Heritage Councilor Alejandro Jorge.
“During the recent holidays the towns received a high number of visitors; we aim to achieve the same success with this new route,” he added.
“The goal is for the tourist who visits us and the local citizen of the municipality and the island to share the same experience,” emphasized Tina Da Silva, Tourism Councilor. “We will launch dynamisation actions to make the route even more attractive and encourage higher attendance.”
“The towns are being beautified daily and progressively, and this project is essential because, together with other routes, it contributes to the protection and promotion of our heritage,” she continued.
