As the French would say, Lourdes, c’est magnifique. Nestled in the southwestern Pyrénees, its status as a pilgrimage center was largely cemented by the sighting of the Virgin Mary at the The Grotto of Massabielle. The city abounds with religious activity, with opportunities to attend mass, say the Rosary as part of the daily Candlelight Procession, or visit holy sites like the Basilica of the Immaculate Conception. The Cirque de Gavarnie offers opportunities to experience breathtaking mountain beauty, such as the tiered Gavarnie Falls.

If you're not interested in the generic, kitchy souvenirs found in most stores in Lourdes, this place is worth checking out! They've got a wide array of souvenirs items: from various rosaries, pendants, and statues to full on church statues that are life-size. You can check out their website for more info. Came highly recommended by a friend and I've been going there every time I visit Lourdes. Very high quality items. The only problem is there is NO NAME on their storefront: it's literally a star of Bethlehem picture against a brown (I think) background. So, if you're planning on checking them out, just walk straight out the St. Michael's gate from the Sanctuary, cross the bridge, and it is literally the third or fourth shop on your right. Hours are Monday-Saturday, 9:00-20:00.
