Description
The Agatha Christie Painted Stairs, located in Puerto de la Cruz, Tenerife, are an iconic site inspired by the famous British author Agatha Christie, who visited the Canary Islands in the early 20th century. These colorful stairs adorn a wall next to the popular Lago Martiánez, a series of ocean pools designed by local artist César Manrique.
The stairs feature a vibrant display of colors and artistic designs that capture the essence of the landscapes and culture of the Canaries. Each painted step reflects different themes from Christie's novels and the rich literary heritage, making it a beloved scenic spot for visitors and locals alike.
In addition to their artistic value, the Agatha Christie Painted Stairs serve as a tribute to the writer's connection to Tenerife, where she found inspiration during her stay. They have become a popular photo opportunity for tourists, contributing to the cultural and artistic diversity of Puerto de la Cruz.
