Similar type with other cave of Mary, there were path of Jesus sacrification but it just in short distance and flat path. At every stop of it, we can light a candle and pray.
Many people believed this place will bring good luck as story behind. Back in 18th century there was a man that suffered from skin disease that hard to cure. In each pray he promised to devote himself if he can cure. Since the miracle he dedicated his life to serve others within area.
I got my spiritual experience here. Frankly speaking, I did not intent to pray as just short visit and let boys knew this famous place. As came from far away, I decided to say hello by praying Rosario.
And.... even from the first sentence, the tear dropped without controlling. I barely can say any single word. The hardly I forced to pray, the harder tears dropped..
I felt ashamed to myself for doubting the presence of God... as He really in there when you spoke to him...
In the backside, you can find a store that sell many merchandise and books. Three of us bought a bracelet with printed pray "Our Father in Heaven" in Latino while hubby choose the book.
Before we left, we took some spring water flowing from the taps at the side of the river. It was believed to give blessing either to those who drink it or for other purposes. The spring water also can be given as a souvenir.
