A place steeped in history, little known to many, dates back to the Mexican Revolution. A Carrancista soldier, mortally wounded in battle against Villista forces, lay against a tree there, awaiting his death. The locals gave him a Christian burial and continue to pray to him for miracles. Ideally, when passing by, one should slow down and cross oneself as a sign of respect.

Excellent place! Full of mystery and mysticism... I feel it's misused by local witches for black magic practices. But the legend is beautiful.

I don't know if they offer tours and tell the legend, but if you want to go for the story, it's fine.

It's easy to get there by bike, the road is all pavement and you can't get lost.

It's just a small house in honor of a soldier; if you want to enjoy the scenery, it's best to go during the day, but if you just want to film, it's great at night.

The energy in that place is impressive, the silence inside is indescribable, it's an experience, and the landscape behind the chapel is something to reflect on.
