Description

First capital neighborhood.Example of tradition, tour on the Banda's royal road that connected the capital with Puerto de Tazacorte.The most traditional and beautiful neighborhood in S/C de La Palma.
The neighborhood of San Sebastián, also known as La Canela since the beginning of the 20th century, arises around the old royal road of La Banda that connected Santa Cruz de La Palma with the Aridane Valley and the Port of Tazacorte.

This original rural road favored the proliferation of artisan trades in its streets, some of which still exist as a workshop where masks are made, or an artisan carpentry shop, which is also a meeting point for neighbors.

Where does the name "Barrio de La Canela" come from? several pastry masters who, of course, used this basic spice in the preparation of many sweets and desserts from La Palma such as almond cheese, bienmesabe or rapaduras, among others. Everyone knows the unsurpassed tradition of sweets on the Island, many of them exported to the rest of the world and which stand out for their sweetness on the palate. The aroma that permeated the streets of the neighborhood led to it being given such an appetizing nickname.
