As a little kid, I remember going to a.....place built of pretty rocks. It took a long time to get there, it was hot outside, and we had to be VERY good. (You know how sometimes a kid-experience seemed like a nightmare, even tho you were supposed to be inspired? THIS was it for me).
Over the years, when we visited Ida and Walburg Naber in Bancroft, Iowa, we'd often "go see the grotto", too. It's 35 miles SW of Bancroft. Ida and Walburg could easily get away for an afternoon to show us the newest thing that'd been added since our last visit.
There are a LOT of family pics taken with the grotto in the background. It creates the desire to show your friends this...amazing...crazy...tacky...fantastic...beautiful...religious tourist trap.
