Tucson's Hidden Spiritual Oasis

This is a tiny park that you can easily miss - Felix Lucero Park (otherwise known as the Garden of Gethsemane). Felix Lucero was a soldier who was badly wounded in WWI and he prayed to create religious sculpture celebrating Jesus if his life was spared. This amazing park is filled with his lifesize depictions of the Last Supper, Jesus on the cross, and others.
