Legend edit

Added the deleted information regarding the legend behind the creation of the sanctuary. Submitted a link to English translation of existing reference. Some cleanup can be done regarding that later. I also changed the terminology to reflect that it is a legend. What is the Wikipedia standard for non-english reference sources? Joetheguy (talk) 21:19, 18 February 2010 (UTC)Reply

The Las Lajas Shrine is a Catholic minor basilica in Ipiales, Colombia, located within the canyon of the Guáitara River. The basilica was built between 1916 and 1949 in the Gothic architectural style to commemorate a apparition of the Virgin Mary. Measured from the base of the canyon, the basilica is 100 metres (330 ft) tall.
