World Treats

I love to travel. My first name is Diversity and my last name is Sampling. Life to me is about enjoying the things I love the most such as music, dancing, nature, food and people. I sample it all when I travel.

To all my followers when I follow you back I do it under Sirenegrins my main blog.
Las Lajas Cathedral or Las Lajas Sanctuary is a cathedral located in the southern Colombian Department of Nariño and built inside the canyon of the Guaitara River. The architecture of this cathedral is of Gothic Revival architecture built from January 1, 1916 to August 20, 1949 The story : an Indian woman named María Mueses de Quiñones was carrying her deaf-mute daughter Rosa on her back near Las Lajas (“The Rocks”). Weary of the climb, the María sat down on a rock when Rosa spoke (for the first time) about an apparition in a cave. Later on, a mysterious painting of the Virgin Mary carrying a baby was discovered on the wall of the cave. Supposedly, studies of the painting showed no proof of paint or pigments on the rock – instead, when a core sample was taken, it was found that the colors were impregnated in the rock itself to a depth of several feet. Whether true or not, the legend spurred the building of a gothic church worthy of a fairy tale.
