Expiatory church crypts

5 Je Suis Encrateia - 2 years ago

Not many people are aware of the crypt as its entrance is hidden behind the church.
I originally wanted to give it 4 stars due to the lighting, but they don't necessarily have a budget to maintain things.

I think the experience would be better if they had better lighting instead of the daylight color cfl bulbs they have through.

Note if you're claustrophobic, this may be a little unsetting for you. as the passage ways are very low, and there's only 1 way in and out.

White the crypt is not new, it's also not as old as you'd expect.

Don't be put off by the voices or shadowy figures. They're just trying to find their way home.

If you are already here came and visit the crypts down the church the ticket is very cheap and is a completely new church down there.

Beautiful art place

(Translated by Google) I love visiting crypts and, these are undoubtedly the most beautiful. Silence and calm predominate, they are in an excellent state and what they charge to enter is symbolic (5 pesos). Inside there are red arrows that indicate the route because it is a maze! If you are sensitive or scared of small spaces it is better not to go.
It is a historic place and I would like you to sell a guide at the entrance to learn more about what you visit because I wanted to know more ????????

Me encanta visitar criptas y, esta son sin duda de las más bonitas. El silencio y la calma predominan, están en un excelente estado y lo que cobran para entrar es simbólico (5 pesos). Adentro hay flechas rojas que te indican la ruta porque es un laberinto! Si eres sensible o te asustan los espacios pequeños es mejor no ir.
Es un lugar histórico y me gustaría que vendan en la entrada una guía para conocer más lo que uno visita porque yo me quedé con ganas de saber más ????????

(Translated by Google) A place that the majority calls sacred, where the remains of more than 1900 people are kept, the construction of the temple began in July 1921, it was completed in 2012, a place with an incredible structure, the person who cares at the end explains that the tour represents the life we u200bu200blead, the entrance costs $ 5 pesos per person, you can take photos, you must remain silent, it is a place that feeds our culture, it reminds us how fleeting life usually is and that we must learn to value it while we have it , I do not recommend it to visit it with children, due to the respect and silence that must be kept,
