Canarian indulgence

Holidays are the time of one of the many Canarian Fiestas. This time it is the so-called Romerias, the equivalent of our old indulgences, which often lasted several days and during which the village community dressed in beautiful folk costumes could boast of their crops and good herds of breeding animals, at the head of which the most beautiful of them are shown. Romeria, like indulgences in Poland, have a religious background, but nowadays they are a tradition in which not only the inhabitants participate, but also numerous tourists arriving on this occasion.
