Cerro San Cristobal Photo

Photographer’s Note

A scene of the Crucifixion on top of Cerro San Cristobal, Santiago, Chile. The hill is one of the highest in Santiago, offering an impressive view of the city. The hike up to the top of the hill wasn't bad at all. Once at the top, you can visit the statue of the Virgin Mary, a small chapel, and an amphitheater built when Pope John Paul II visited and offered mass in 1987. After spending some time at the top, we took the funicular (cable car) down to the bottom. For only a couple of bucks we were able to ride down in the same car that the Pope did 20 years earlier.

Hi John,
Nice close-up of the scene representing the crucifixion. I also like your POV.
I hope you will share more pictures of Chile because we are planning to visit Santiago next summer. We also want to use the funicular.
