"Bajada" is the shortened version of the ''Fiestas de la Bajada'' which is a festival which takes place in several places in the Canary Islands. ''Bajada'' is Spanish for "bringing down", and means the bringing of a patron saint's statue from its normal place in a chapel to be celebrated by the people. == Examples of major bajadas == *In La Palma (Santa Cruz de La Palma) the ''Fiestas Lustrales de la Bajada de la Virgen de las Nieves'' every five years. *In El Hierro, the image of the Virgen de los Reyes moved to Valverde every 4 years. *In La Gomera (''Fiestas Lustrales de la Bajada de la Virgen de Guadelupe'') every five years, most recently in 2013, in which a statue of Our Lady of Guadelupe, the patron saint of La Gomera, is brought from the chapel at Puntallana, near San Sebastian de la Gomera, on a celebratory tour of the island. *In Tenerife, the image of the Virgin of Candelaria (Patron Saint of the Canary Islands) moved to Santa Cruz de Tenerife and San Cristóbal de La Laguna every 7 years alternately.〔(La visita de la Virgen de Candelaria a Santa Cruz tendrá un carácter pastoral )〕 *In Gran Canaria the image of the Virgen del Pino moved to Las Palmas de Gran Canaria when a major event is held. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Bajada (festival)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
