Kamay ni Hesus, Shrine Experience

Kamay ni Hesus Healing Church and Grotto

TRAVEL - I have no idea what places we passed by going to Lucban, Quezon from Lipa, Batangas cause we are riding a private car. All I knotice is the field, with all tress and rivers along the road, you can feel the province far from the city views. 

It's almost 3 hrs of travel before we finally reached the entrance gate to Kamay ni Hesus and all the parking area were occupied so we just park along the road. Souvenirs and hats vendors strays outside the gate and we bought hats before we walk in.

There are so many people in all ages visiting the place in different purposes. Most of the adults and in old age came to pray and for healing, some young adult (including me) just came to explore, experience and feel the holiness of the place. 
We have to climb the  305 steps grotto to reach the 50ft statue of the Ascending Christ. It's really tiring especially this hot days. The devotees stop by in every station along the zigzag steps to pray. But some just took photos along the way to the top. 


There is a resting bench behind the Christ statue but i prefer to stay in front, overlooking the whole place below. People there are in groups of Barkada, family and couples. 
Going down is just one straight step so it's easier and faster.
Religious Mural

Eden Park
Entrance to Noah's Ark

After going down from the grotto, we did not miss the Religious mural, the Garden of Eden and the Noah's Ark. Unfortunately, we're not able to enter inside the Noah's ark, its closed to visitors. 
Fish Pond

There's also a fish pond beside the
Noah's ark. And several souvenir item stores inside, near the garden of Eden and food and refreshment booth near the gate.

We are done exploring the whole Shrine just before lunch so we decided to eat our baon in the car. The day is still so early to just drive back home.
