At the beginning of the pilgrimage route going to the sanctuary of the Virgin of Talpa, we approach the path to start our ascent to Cerro del Obispo. There, in the distance, outlined against the sky, we see the Gratitude like a sentinel that reminds us the promise to find a place of silence and peace, a place where time stands still, a temple of light. As we get closer, a slope shows us the way to find the Wall of Promises, the place where we express our personal quest for this pilgrimage. In this way we enter into a symbolic space of gratitude and self-reflection.
