Road Trip, Day 1 (part 2)
The Grotto, known as The National Sanctuary of our Sorrowful Mother, is a Catholic sanctuary, in Portland, Oregon. Nestled both at the foot of and on top of a cliff. A large meditation hall (far right) whose main chamber is at clifftop level extends down to the foot of the cliff; the cross on the hall is visible many miles
away. In addition 
to a church and a plaza with a replica of The Pieta (right), there are several thousand feet of trails, including a trail of the Stations of the Cross, along which the faithful may pass in contemplation.

The project consists of four office buildings (containing more than one million square feet, an athletic center, a conference center, parking structure, additional day care facilities and playgrounds, new outdoor sports facilities, and extensively site improvements.
