Las Manchas is a locality in the municipalities of El Paso and Los Llanos de Aridane on the island of La Palma. It is an area of historical and geographical interest, especially due to the volcanic territory in which it is located, being a tourist and cultural focus of the two municipalities. At the end of the 15th century, this area was part of the aboriginal cantons of Tihuya and Tamanca.[1]
