El Torno loves to celebrate! One of their biggest parties is on October 18th, called San Lucas. They also have a really fun Carnival, which is like a big costume party with music and dancing. These holidays are a chance for everyone in the village to get together, have fun, and share their traditions. It's a time for joy and community!

A Village of Green and Rain

This mountain village is very green because it has lots of forests. It also gets a good amount of rain, which helps all the trees and plants grow big and strong. The rain is like a drink for the land, keeping everything fresh and alive. It makes El Torno a beautiful place to visit, especially when the forests are full of life.
