Vineyards of Lanzarote

Most of the vineyards of Lanzarote are concentrated in the central area of La Geria. Each single vine is planted in an approximately three-foot-deep pit about four to five meters wide and surrounded by semi-circular stone walls called Zocos. The pit protects the vine from the strong winds. The patterns of pits results in interesting views for photographers.
