As the name suggests, Cactualdea Park is a sort of botanical garden focusing on the display of hundreds of species of cacti, more precisely, 1,200 of them. Several palm trees and dragon trees peg out the garden strategically, but visitors should rest assured: there is much more to Cactualdea Park than meets the eye.

On top of that, the park attains its peak of popularity during the so-called Lucha Canaria, which is hosted by the generous amphitheater of the park.
