Tiwy.com, August 2007

Holy Virgin Suyapa is a heavenly patroness of Honduras. Two temples in her honor are built in the suburbs of Tegucigalpa; a wide avenue leads to them from the center of the city. Solemn ceremonies, when a holy relic — image of Holy Virgin Suyapa — is brought from the Smaller temple, are held in the Bigger temple. Tiny figure, of about 18-20 cm in height, feels uncomfortable in a big temple. They say it used to demonstrate more than once that it feels much better in the old, smaller temple. The statue of Holy Virgin Suyapa can be seen at one of the pictures (bottom row, to the right).
