This orchidarium also has a space dedicated to the Virgen del Pilar, Patron Saint of Zaragoza and protector of sailors. This space is a place of devotion and spirituality for many people who visit the Orchidarium.
The image of the Virgen del Pilar is a replica of the original found in Spain. This was donated by the Spanish community residing in Cuba and is considered a symbol of devotion and faith in the Virgen del Pilar.
This space dedicated to the Virgen del Pilar is ideal for meditation and reflection and the encounter with the spiritual, respecting the cultural and religious diversity of those who visit it.
