This 2.5 km circuit is one of the main attractions of Junin de los Andes and is visited annually by thousands of people, during the Easter celebrations.<\/p>\n One of the great achievements of the artist who designed it, the architect and sculptor Alejandro Santana, is to have attached in the sculptures, elements of the Catholic tradition along with those\u00a0of the Mapuche aborigines’ cosmovision. In the sculptures we can clearly distinguish aboriginal traits and we can see Laura Vicu\u00f1a and Ceferino Namuncur\u00e1, two Blessed natives from the region.<\/p>\n Stations are circular shaped little plazas, located in the middle of a pine forest on the west slope of Cerro de la Cruz, an \u00a0easy access place, just 500 m. from famous Route 40<\/a>.<\/p>\n The park has opening and closing times that may vary according to the season. Check with the tourist office. The tour is guided.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The Via Christi Sculpture Park is an artistic and religious journey representing the path to the crucifixion of Jesus through 23 stations, located on the slopes of Cerro de la Cruz, in the town of Junin de los Andes.
