| On 1390 , the current Candlemas was a solitary and desert-like place that frequented the guanches shepherds of the Güimar |menceyato|. An afternoon, two natural that conducted your cattle, saw as some goats refuse to go in the reaches to the mouth of the gorge, gained to him one of them by thinking that it had people that wanted you sport to make a false start and found, on a rock, the blessed image.With this legend, it begins the fervor and adoration of the islanders to the virgin of Candlemas. Fervor that all August fifteen it is transformed in a monumental pilgrimage, that is shaped from all dots of the Tenerife island to reaching to the basilica of Candlemas, where waits to the pilgrims, the Canaries patroness. |
