The fountains of Puerto de la Cruz tell two stories. The town’s old chorros were public water spouts where people once collected an everyday necessity. Its plaza fountains are familiar landmarks and places to pause. Together, they offer a gentle way to explore local history on foot, from the church square and harbour to the READ MORE
