The Teide National Park and the summits of Tenerife have received the 'Starlight' certification on Friday, in the first case in the category of Tourist Destination and in the second in the Reserve, which has been awarded by the Institute of Astrophysics of Canary Islands (IAC) through the Canary Foundation for the Dissemination of Astronomy.
The 'Starlight' initiative was created in 2009 and is sponsored by international organizations such as Unesco, the World Tourism Organization (UNWTO) and the International Astronomical Union (IAU).
The president of the Cabildo, Carlos Alonso, stressed at a press conference the importance of these certifications so that the island has a tourist product of excellence in a segment that has "a high expenditure" and will help the creation of a new productive fabric.
