Santa Luzia Stations of the Cross

Beautiful path between the pilgrimage church and the city. The path crosses the winding road several times so children should be informed.

One of the most beautiful vantage points imaginable. A fantastic view of the city at the mouth of the Rio Lima, especially from the vantage point on the basilica.
