The Basilica Sanctuary of Our Lady of Penha of France - Rio de Janeiro - Brazil

in #photography7 years ago

Today is December 25 and I decided to walk around my neighborhood.
So, I saw that the Basilica of Penha could be a cool place to go and make great photos for my Steemians friends.

First step


The low place above the sanctuary were we can see the amphitheater used to events like theatre or music

Second Step


The staircase has 365 steps, one for each day of the year and made to who wants to pay promisse or for the people who don't whant to go to the stone top's church into the elevator.
Come on, be brave.

The plaque says "water unfit for drinking".
