History and information

The northern part of Gran Canaria was covered in forests during the Spanish conquest of the 15th century. All that's left today are two redoubts, the Finca de Osorio in Teror and the Tilos de Moya. Here, the native chief, Doramas, took refuge after attacking the Castilian conquerors, giving the name Selva de Doramas or "Doramas' Wood". These days, there are old caserios (country-houses) between hills and cliffs with its medicinal waters.[4] The town area is surrounded by huge volcanic valleys and is well known for its Neo-Romanesque church, Iglesia de la Virgen de la Candelaria. This impressive structure was completed in 1957. Moya is the birthplace of the Spanish poet Tomás Morales Castellano.[5]
