Jardín de Orquídeas Sitio Litre

Historic Puerto de la Cruz orchid garden in the grounds of Sitio Litre house

Jardín de Orquídeas Sitio Litre is a small historic orchid garden in Puerto de la Cruz, set around one of Tenerife's older houses. The garden mixes orchids, subtropical plants, fountains, and a genteel 19th-century travel atmosphere.

It is not as large as the town's botanical garden, but it has intimacy and history on its side. Stop in if you like gardens, want a quiet break from the seafront, or are tracing Puerto de la Cruz's long tradition as a winter resort.
