Centro de Interpretación del Arte Efímero Alfombras de La Orotava

This "Museum of the Carpets" celebrates the town’s Corpus Christi festival with its carpets created from flowers and colored sands from El Teide. Set in a beautiful mansion dating from 1642, exhibits explain the history of the tradition, as well as the process. There is also a wonderfully atmospheric and grainy 10-minute black-and-white audiovisual presentation of past festivities.
