Santuario de Nuestra Señora del Saliente

Never been there before.....it's down in Almeria!

It's some well known religious place of worship and people come from all over the place to visit it!

As always, the Catholic Church explores all avenues of cashing in somehow.......so they've built a Hotel and Restaurant there as well! 

All the people going in were dressed up to fuck.......whereas I looked like a vagrant, and then I had a piss in their rock garden! Had to.....I was fucking busting!

So here we go!

Very rural roads to get there......in most places the surface was pretty rough.

Eventually found the access road for the place.......

We're quite high up here and very windy!

Got as near to the building as possible cos I don't like walking! And I'm suffering with a Hernia FFS! They should have brought out the Pope mobile for me really.

Life is so much easier with a nice Shad Top Box!

Despite my physical limitations I walked around the place!

Had a look inside.....

Internal courtyard!

And one area that's kept behind bars! Fuck knows what goes on in there!

Back outside.......

So I had a decent run out, though surprisingly it was a bit on the chilly side......about 17C. Made worse by very strong winds.

Done enough miles to take the bike in for an oil and filter change now.......but rain is coming in on Wednesday so not sure whether it'll be this week.

Bike went great......I can't fault the thing. You lot can of course......but when did your opinions ever count?

Nice pics - love places like that. How old are the buildings? Don't look to be super old.

Originally started in the 1700s but has been updated numerous times over the years. as far as I can see.
