The Basilica of Our Lady of the Angels, located in Cartago, Costa Rica, is a significant Roman Catholic church and a revered pilgrimage site. Dedicated to the patron saint of Costa Rica, La Negrita, the basilica was originally constructed in 1639 but has undergone several reconstructions due to earthquake damage. The current structure, completed in the early 20th century, showcases a unique blend of Byzantine and colonial architectural styles. Each year, millions of devotees participate in the "Romería," a pilgrimage to the basilica, to honor La Negrita and seek blessings.
