This a beautiful shrine to Our Lady of Fatima! I had been there years ago and I think the grounds could use some sprucing up now but I did see signs that they would be renovating some things. The gift shop is very large and they display some lovely spiritual gifts and collectibles. They have statues of all the saints,... More

The Basilica is quite small but really unusual and beautiful and there's a pond with life size statues of saints around it. If you are in the area, it's worth seeing. The Easter Mass is typically standing room only. During the Christmas season it's lit up.

Located in beautiful Lewiston, N.Y. Absolutely breath taking especially at Christmas time or at night when it is all lit up with amazing lights. A must see for the religious. Great store on location for a wonderful selection of religious items.

The grounds are tranquil and well kept. A nice place to reflect and worship. The parking lot could use some work.

Interesting spot. A little ill kept and no lights on in the evening. Some awesome works of art and a little eerie.

Really enjoyed our trip to the shrine, to see the light display, on December 30, 2011. Very magical, even if one is not overtly religious!

As a Catholic, I thought this was definitely worth a visit. Family went to a mass there as well. Free to visit. Lots of beautiful statues of the saints. It was very humbling to walk through the grounds. Interestingly, there is also a cafeteria on-site. Food wasn't bad and prices were good. In all, it was a great little stop... More

I'm not one to search-out attractions just based on their religious significance, but we found ourselves with a few hours to kill, so we wandered on over here, and left quite impressed. My best advice would be to check-out their website to see if this would interest you. If it peaks any interest, I'd strongly suggest visiting. If not, you're... More
