The next stop along the High Road was a very old chapel (built between
1814 and 1816) in the town of Chimayo. The chapel is reportedly
built on healing ground, and there is a small room off the altar where
you can dig some of this "holy dirt" to take with you.

Santuario's altar, featuring the "miraculous" Crucifix of
Our Lord of Esquipulas.
