El Salvador - Divine Mercy Shrine, Jesus just got real!

Mabuhay, 

one of the most classic tourist attractions is the "Divine Mercy Shrine", which is an 15,24 m high statue of Jesus himself. 
The fact, that the Philippines are one of the most christian countries in the world is just materialized in this shrine. The area around Jesus is about nine hectare and it is very beautiful to walk through the gardens . But just check for yourself. 


Here is the crew (Johns's family) ready for the inspection. 




 Actually it looked a little bit like a pop star Jesus... and behind the statue there was a church, which was for my taste a little bit over the top. 
It had the crown of thorns at the roof, but anyway, from the inside it was very peaceful and pretty,


 And of course, because the shrine is located on top of a mountain the view was seriously amazing!


 Besides the fact, that it was incredibly hot on top of the mountain we lit up some candles, to support global warming and of course send some wishes to beloved ones.
 Of course in my personal candle house!
 It was one of the nicest excursions we had in Mindanao. Very peaceful and maybe we are riding now n the way of jesus too... like the driver below...
