"Not Your Average Joe Cesar Manrique is the pride and soul of the island of Lanzarote. This local artist's influence can be seen throughout the character and construction of the island (he imposed the white building design regulations). Built in 1966 upon his return from NYC, Manrique spawned this 3,000m house inside a defunct volcano. By Lauren Heineck"

This place is absolutely stunning, we just kept saying wow wow wow when we visited. Such a special and interesting piece of architecture, would really recommend to visit. The gardens are also magnificent. Plan to spend about 1 hour. Easy free parking. They also have a small coffee shop with some snacks. We bought the combined ticket, you can visit the other house within 15 days of your visit here. The 10 eur tickets is definitely worth the price (17 eur for the combined ticket).

Well with the entry price of €10. Wasn't really familiar with the work of Manrique, as it's my first time in Lanzarote. This was a great introduction. Once you've been you start to notice his influence all over the islands! Must have been a beautiful house and had been sympathetically converted for the Foundation's purposes, without losing any of its former impact.

An amazing house. Mostly melting into the lava and rock, it's full of interesting and amazing rooms. Startling white floors and ceilings contrast with the dark grey rock. There are many stunningly unusual rooms with tunnels, bridges, and corridors connecting them. Towards the end, there are rooms used as a gallery with Manrique's work, some of which I found striking and beautiful. Also, there are videos highlighting Manrique's attitude to politics and Lanzarote, which he was obviously passionate about. A very worthwhile visit.

Architectural wonder that can’t be missed. Walking through this art piece/home constructed in lava “bubbles” is otherworldly and astonishingly beautiful. Photos and videos are not the same as being in this masterpiece.

Stunning vision of Cesar Manrique to turn this set of lava bubbles into his home. Amazing to learn about his influence on the islands architecture.

Fantastic place to visit, a 70s throwback house in lava bubbles! Some amazing artwork too.

€10 for the entry of a beautiful house turned museum of an artist who was passionate about Lanzarote architectural buildings as well as nature. Make sure to watch a short film depicting the story behind the house and why it was built in 1968 after his return from New York. Very interesting and definitely a good investment of time and money

This place was fascinating! The way he created the rooms underground was amazing, I really recommend this place.
