Santuario de Torrecitas, Marian sanctuary in San Luis Potosí, Mexico.
Located at an altitude of 2425 meters in the Sierra de Santa María del Río mountains, this Catholic sanctuary features high stone walls and religious murals.
The sanctuary origins date to 1771 when a man named Silvestre discovered an image of the Virgin of Guadalupe permanently imprinted on a rock formation.
The sanctuary holds regular ceremonies and religious services that bring together local communities for spiritual gatherings and collective prayer sessions.
Visitors can access guided tours throughout the year and participate in video mapping presentations that explain the religious narratives of the sanctuary.
The image of the Virgin appears directly on the rock surface, with natural irregularities creating volume and texture effects in the representation.
