Fiesta Los Corazones de Tejina

The Corazones de Tejina, celebrated in the town of Tejina in the northeast of Tenerife, are a festival that combines popular celebration with religious fervor, noted for its significant ethnographic and anthropological value. Every year, around August 24th, the inhabitants proudly raise these beautiful banners in honor of Saint Bartholomew, proclaiming their beauty and uniqueness. Recognized in 2004 by the International Center for Heritage Conservation (CICOP) with the Special Canary Islands Award, these hearts are a symbol of intangible cultural heritage.
