True culture and beauty... and it's free
By ,
The shrine is actually a place to make a wish and leave a candle, if you return with the candle still lit, it is said that the wish will come true. I used to volunteer at museum next door called, La Pilita, both places are a place of true barrio culture.

This was a total waste of time, there was nothing there, except a wall and a plate saying what it was. I can't think of anyone who would enjoy this place.
