Part of its importance in the region stems from its educational vocation, as the University of La Laguna, founded in 1792, is located within its municipality. It currently has several campuses (Central, Geneto, Guajara, and Ofra) that host university students from a large part of the archipelago.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Most of the municipality extends across a relatively flat area of considerable size, such as the capital itself or La Vega. The remaining enclaves are located at a lower elevation, such as Taco, La Cuesta, Tejina and Valle de Guerra, or on the coast, such as the tourist-residential centres of Bajamar and Punta del Hidalgo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The link between the current island capital, with which it has been a metropolitan area for some years, and the La Orotava Valley, it is served by the Autopista del Norte and Los Rodeos Airport. Within the city, there is another municipality, Tegueste, unique in the region.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In its demarcation there is an important laurel forest, Las Mercedes, in the contact zone with the Anaga peninsula, where one of the main rural parks of the region is located.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-stackable-column stk-block-column stk-column stk-block stk-b453c4f\"
