Beautiful place. Amazing views, I can't add anything else to such a magnificent place in the world. Glad I made this trip. This is the Corazon de Mexico on a map! Just understand the gates to the top are closed Mondays, as many things in Mexico are closed on Mondays.

It is situated on a steep hill so if you are fit only then try to climb on top. The view from top is beautiful and you can see the whole parras from there. If you are in parras it is recommend to visit this place.

Church of the Santo Madero on the top of a small mountain with and easy hike to the top, with a view that's worth the effort. There's really interesting legend about the church that a big megaphone with a record that tells repeatedly. At the bottom of the hill there's a lots of vendors that sell some delicious beverages that's call "rusas", really recommended and it's a good place to bought some cool handmade crafts at a good price.

Ok so it looks nice from afar. Yeah it’s a cool church built literally on a rock. However many things to dislike. #1 parking is as shady as it gets, hide your valuables! #2 although most of the way up has stairs and a ramp for stroller there is a narrow set of dangerous stairs at the top that is zero accesible. #3 “the gorgeous views of Parras” as described in some Google posts are “ok” at best.

Truly a mecca! Must do. Very safe! Be sure to give pesos, to the child, that explains the history of it to you.

Fun place to walk up the hill and see the town from the top. You might get lucky and see a traditional harvest and rain lady dance group performances.
