According to a study by the University of Syracuse, the Canary Islands enjoy the status of having the best climate in the world. The study is based on meteorological comparisons from more than 600 places in the world, taking into account the rainy days per year, as well as the air and water temperatures. The study confirms: a life in Gran Canaria is a great option.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8211;<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 <\/span><b>The air<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The WHO (World Health Organization) published a ranking of air quality in 46 Spanish cities. The result: Gran Canaria is at the top of the ranking, ahead of Santa Cruz de Tenerife. This means that in Gran Canaria you inhale the least polluted air in all of Spain. This is a great benefit when it comes to the prevention of possible diseases, especially respiratory diseases<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8211;<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 <\/span><b>Benefits for the self-employed<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Canary Islands continue to lead the list of communities in Spain where the number of self-employment is constantly growing, the percentage of immigrants registered as self-employed rise to 29%. Morocco and Italy are providing the largest number. One of the main reasons why the Canary Islands are at the top of the list is the success of the support programs for entrepreneurs and the self-employed, which are offered on the islands.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8211;<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 <\/span><b>Tax benefits<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The RIC (Reserva para Inversiones de Canarias = Canary Islands Investment Reserve) or the ZEC (Zona Especial Canaria = Canary Islands Special Zone) offer great benefits to residents. The idea that this region is a tax heaven has now disappeared, but it is certain, however, that there is a much lower taxation than in the rest of the EU. For this reason the Canary Islands are an ideal investment area.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8211;<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 <\/span><b>The culture<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Canary Islands preserve many cultural peculiarities that originate from the roots of the Guanches (aborigines) and their subsequent mixing with the Castilian. Even today, we can still admire archaeological treasures such as the Guanche mummies on Tenerife or the painted caves of G\u00e1ldar (\u201cCueva Pintada\u201d) and the \u201cCenobio de Valer\u00f3n\u201d (Santa Mar\u00eda de Gu\u00eda) on Gran Canaria.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8211;<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 <\/span><b>The food<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gran Canaria has been cultivating thousands of recipes from hundreds of cultures since its origins. Therefore, its gastronomic offer includes dishes from all possible countries, which have varied and improved over the years. But, when speaking of Canary cuisine, without any doubt, the most famous dishes come to the fore, such as \u201cPotaje de Berros\u201d (watercress stew), \u201cCarne Fiesta\u201d or \u201cCochino de Adobo\u201d (festive meat \/ marinated pork), \u201cPuchero Canario\u201d (Canarian vegetable stew), \u201cVieja con papas arrugadas\u201d (parrot fish with wrinkled potatoes) and \u201cSancocho Canario\u201d (stew with salted fish).<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>&#8211; The rent<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">En las Islas Canarias los alquileres son mucho m\u00e1s baratos si los comparamos con el resto de Europa, y teniendo en cuenta la alta calidad de vida.
