CAPILLA DE PIEDRA DE JUAN FELIZ SÁNCHEZ
Read moreTo go, put your boots together, take food for 2 days and leave early. The stone chapel of the Virgin of Coromoto du Tisure is indeed 4-5 a. m. on foot. To access it, exit San Rafael towards Apartaderos (for example self-stop). Just a few kilometres away, go to La Mucuchaché bridge. On the right begins the splendid walk (you will pass the La Ventana pass at 4 200 m above sea level, before turning towards El Tisure) to the sanctuary dedicated to the Virgin which safeguards the artist during construction. The church, completed in 1954, houses a treasure of Andean art, sculptures of the calvary and the Holy Sepulchre. Let's say that Sánchez was born in 1900 and still created two other chapels, in 1964 and 1966.
