Risco Caído and the Sacred Mountains of Gran Canaria Cultural Landscape

The Risco Caído and the Sacred Mountains of Gran Canaria Cultural Landscape is a humanised space, modelled by generations of men and women who have made their mark on the land with farming activities, water management, transhumance, pottery, the outlines of its paths, etc.
The human factor, the inventive capacity to provide solutions to local reality and adapt their environment, comprises a whole universe full of tangible and intangible experiences. The inhabitants have passed on a great legacy in the form of goods, historical engineering, cave dwellings, landscapes where crops are grown on bench terraces, etc. and intangible heritage: a world of flavours, uses and traditions that find their meaning in the territory where they live.
