History |
|
|
Teror is an old Canarian. Unlike the
name suggests, it's actually a delightful,
little village, peaceful and very charming.
It's known as the "city with the balconies"
because of the many beautifully carved white
balconies that are on display all throughout the
town. This is typical of Canarian houses in this
region.
One of the town's most interesting feature is
the church Basilica de Nuestra Señora del Pino.
It's located right in the centre of the town and
was built back in the 1700's. It's quite an
impressive structure.
The
religious Centre of the Island and the 4th biggest town. Known for the Pine
Madonna. Tradition says, that she in 1400 saved the town from a bad
drought, and since then she has been the patron saint of the town. In the
church you find a treasury filled with gifts for the Pine Madonna.
The journey up to Teror is a treat in itself. As
you pass through the mountains on the narrow winding road (lined with
eucalyptus trees), you'll see spectacular views out over the
countryside. You'll also pass by many small
villages along the way.
There's a huge market on every Sunday. This is
an absolute must see. Locals from all the
surrounding villages (and further a field) come
here to do their shopping. They sell everything
from traditional Canarian foods to local clothes
and crafts. |
