Definitely for the devout. Large complex with the chapel the Black Madonna being number one. Our guide was terrific and able to get us in many places to see the votive offerings. Grandeur might be too much for those with a more simple palate. More

One can visit it as pilgrim, one as a tourist but everybody will be surprised and impressed by this place. Me too. I feel there quite comfortable and calmly. May... More

Once inside it was as crowded as a sports stadium, with people pushing and... More
