the sun was already setting when i visited césar manrique's former house and i was very lucky to be able wandering around the museum with only a handful of people. the buildings are located in the midst of a lava field in tahiche and are centered around some lava bubbles, which house beautifully coloured rooms each. there's a white and a red room and a backyard with an amazing pool landscape (look here). walking from room to room i couldn't help but wondering what it must have been like living in such a piece of art.
