The rural way of daily living
The Valle de Guerra is a coastal district in the municipality of San Cristóbal de La Laguna, located in the northeast sector of the island within the foothills of the Anaga Mountain Range. Its gentle landscape and mild climate create ideal conditions for cultivation, and thus it constitutes one of the island’s most important agricultural regions.

The Casa de Carta Museum of History and Anthropology is located on an estate and is considered to be a unique example of rural architecture from the eighteenth century. It has been renovated and currently houses the exposition La Casa de Carta and Traditions, consisting of a collection of objects and pieces representing the island’s most popular traditions.
This exhibition space is located in the heart of the Villa de Tegueste as a
project for the cultural management of the heritage of said municipality. It began its journey in 2014, focusing its efforts on the creation of an
exhibition with broad participation of the residents of the town in the
construction of the exhibition discourse. The space is divided into different rooms, dedicated, for example, to cultural values so characteristic of Tegueste such as the Canarian fight, the carts of the pilgrimage or the Librea
The origins of the Bodega El Lomo (winery), situated in the area known as El Lomo, in Tegueste, are a result of the efforts of Félix Rodríguez Rodríguez. In the 1980s he bought the farmland where the winery is situated nowadays and started to produce small quantities of wine using the traditional methods of the area, by means of an open winepress and the old manual screw press. The excellent quality of the wine, as well as the reputation earned from that time on, has permitted a series of expansions and improvements which eventually made it necessary to build the wine cellar as it is at present. It has been renovated and enlarged, allowing the winegrowing tradition of the area to be combined with modern facilities.
