Don't waste your time!
Perhaps I WON'T come back another day. Geesh. The whole experience was just weird. What's so great about an old church filled with pieces of bones from priests who died years ago? Plus, it's located in a rural area that stank so badly of manure I could barely breathe.
He literally stood in the doorway, blocking me from going in, and said, "We're closing now. Perhaps you can come back another day."
I replied, "Yes. You're open until 4 today. It isn't 4 yet," and I walked toward the gift shop entrance.
The grounds and shrines are beautiful. The staff is knowledgable. The gift shop is just a lot of fun.
A friend and I visited here last Saturday (August 5, 2017). As we left the main sanctuary at around 3:45, some fat, bald dude starting yelling, "You'll have to wrap up your visit now, ladies. We are closing. Didn't you see our schedule?"
Beautiful place and has everything you need!
Out in the sticks, but earn and friendly staff. I found the relics amazing. While there was no tour guide while I was there, that was not a problem. I went when there were many people there, & I was able to freely looked at all the relics, as well as the small paper guide that showed me what I was looking at. Because it was under construction, I was allowed to go up and get closer to those around the altar. Which I found to be a wonderful privilege.
It is nice campground..very neat..
