The municipality of Teror is located in the average zones of North Gran Canaria, there are 20 km of distance from the old quarter of Teror Village to Las Palmas of GC one. Their limits draw an irregular shape that borders on six different municipalities: in the north, Arucas; in the northeast, Las Palmas of Gran Canaria; in the east, St Brígida; in the south, St Mateo; in the west, Valleseco; in the northwest, Firgas.
Teror‘s topography is very hilly and its landscape is characterised by the amount of gullies and mountains in all of its surface.
The traditional food of Teror has a lot of farmer’s products of the zone.
Potatoes, corn, beans, or the courgette are some of our cultivated products and they’re used for preparing the ‘potajes’, one of the traditional Canarian products. There is also meat in the municipality’s gastronomy, essentially pork, as in ‘potajes’ as in the fabrication of charcuterie’s products.
Perhaps there is no traditional food representing the municipality, but there are products that are important in the gastronomy of Canarias. The most famous are the ‘chorizos’ and the black pudding, but also the ‘gofio’, bakery and patisserie.
There is a mass procession honouring ‘Nuestra Señora del Pino’, who receives a lot of gifts, in September. The ‘papahuevos’ colour the festivals that finishes the next Sunday with a procession called the Day of Marias.
