Carpet Made with Sand in The Church Square of La Orotava - Tenerife

The carpet made with sand from Teide in the Plaza de la Iglesia de La Orotava, for the celebration of Corpus Christi, June 26, 2025, in Orotava, Tenerife, Canary Islands (Spain). The creation of these carpets is a central tradition of the celebration of the Infraoctava of Corpus Christi. Every year, during this festivity known as the "Thursday of the Carpets", ephemeral carpets are made in the streets and, especially, a large tapestry in the Town Hall Square. These carpets are made with flower petals, heather and, in the case of the main tapestry, with natural sands from the Teide National Park. Photo by Germán Maymo/Europa Press Canarias/ABACAPRESS.COM
