This Catholic chapel, the Santuario de Nuestro Señor de Esquipulas,
commonly known as El Santuario de Chimayó, has a reputation as a healing
site. Believers claim that dirt from a back room of the church can heal
physical and spiritual ills. It is known as the "Lourdes of America,"
and
attracts close to 300,000 visitors a year, including up to 30,000 during
Holy Week. It has been called "no doubt the most important Catholic
pilgrimage center in the United States."

Very nice - you got a much better vantage point than I managed.
The story we got was that the priests had to regularly replenish the
dirt because pilgrims kept carrying it off. Can't possibly be true....
