It is a real pleasure to greet you again through this community that is dedicated to highlighting Architecture and Design within the Hive ecosystem. For me it is an excellent opportunity to share my admiration for a sacred place in my hometown and at the same time complement a post I shared last week where I told you that we are in search of a special place for the eternal rest of my dad's ashes, because we have finally found this place and in this first cover image you can see the facade of the Parroquia La Resurrección del Señor in Maracay, Aragua State of Venezuela...
Es un verdadero placer saludarles nuevamente a través de esta comunidad que se dedica a resaltar la Arquitectura y el Diseño dentro del ecosistema de Hive. Para mí es una excelente oportunidad de compartir mi admiración por un lugar sagrado en mi ciudad de origen y al mismo tiempo complementar un post que compartí la semana pasada donde les conté que nos encontramos en la búsqueda de un lugar especial para el descanso eterno de las cenizas de mi papá, porque finalmente hemos encontrado este sitio y en esta primera imagen de portada pueden ver la fachada de la Parroquia La Resurrección del Señor en Maracay, Estado Aragua de Venezuela...
I will begin by telling you that a few days after my father's death we decided to visit this beautiful church, since we were told that they were building a new phase of columbaria for the ashes of the deceased. I had not visited this parish for years, and although it is still under construction, there are remarkable advances in its infrastructure. This image that I share here is a sculpture representing the Resurrection of Jesus, and that is precisely the name of the parish. This first day that we went to ask about the columbarium, the sculpture did not exist and I was surprised that in less than two weeks we could already appreciate this work of art at the entrance, besides the fact that the construction work was already finished.
Comenzaré por comentarles que a los pocos días del fallecimiento de mi padre decidimos acercarnos a esta hermosa iglesia, ya que nos mencionaron que estaban en construcción de una nueva fase de columbarios para el descanso de las cenizas de los difuntos. Tenía años sin visitar esta parroquia, y aunque aún se encuentra en construcción, hay notables avances en su infraestructura. Esta imagen que comparto aquí al lado es una escultura que representa la Resurrección de Jesús, y precisamente así se llama la parroquia. Este primer día que pasamos a preguntar por los columbarios la escultura no existía y me sorprendió que en menos de dos semanas ya podíamos apreciar esta obra de arte en la entrada, además de que el trabajo de construcción ya estaba terminado.
As you can see in the image above, the space is very large and the church has a hexagon shape. Its design is quite simple, very homemade, and I am referring to the wooden roof and all that piping that makes it look like a roofed court. As in some theaters it has upper balconies for people to stand on when the parish is full of parishioners, and well, it still does not have stained glass windows and for the moment there are not so many saints around, so I promise to come back later and see how the construction of the church continues.
Como pueden apreciar en la imagen de arriba, el espacio es muy amplio y la iglesia tiene forma de hexágono. Su diseño es bastante simple, muy casero, y me refiero al techo de madera y toda esa tubería que la hace ver como una cancha techada. Como en algunos teatros posee unos balcones superiores para que las personas se ubiquen arriba cuando la parroquia este llena de feligreses, y bueno, aún no cuenta con vitrinas en sus ventanas y de momento no existen tantos santos en sus alrededores, así que prometo volver más adelante y ver cómo continúa la construcción de la misma.
On the outside, its beautiful design shines in brick color at the top and cement color at the bottom. The surrounding area has many bushes and allows you to hear the singing of the birds that rest there, besides being a residential area where there is not much flow of vehicles, so peace reigns even at the top of the tower. As I mentioned before, the reason that took us to this holy place was to look for a columbarium to leave my dad's ashes. In a previous post my friend @maitt87 recommended me to trust the columbarium in Santa Cruz de Aragua, but we felt a very special connection with this place, besides considering it closer to home. In the images I will share with you below I want to show you what the resting place for the ashes of the deceased looks like. I just want to add that there is a lot of sound of birds and that the garden is very well kept and next to the temple where masses are celebrated.
Por fuera brilla su hermoso diseño en color ladrillo en la parte superior y color cemento en la parte inferior. Sus al rededores tienen muchos arbustos y permite que se escuche el canto de los pájaros que ahí reposan, además de ser una zona residencial donde no hay mucho flujo de vehículos, así que reina la paz hasta en lo más alto de su torre. Como indiqué anteriormente, el motivo que nos llevó hasta este lugar santo fue buscar un columbario para dejar las cenizas de mi papá. En un post anterior mi amiga @maitt87 me recomendó confiar en los columbarios de Santa Cruz de Aragua, pero sentimos una conexión muy especial con este sitio, además de considerarlo más cerca de casa. En las imágenes que les compartiré a continuación quiero mostrarles cómo es el sitio de descanso para las cenizas de los difuntos. Solo quiero agregar que hay mucho sonido de aves y que el jardín está muy cuidado y al lado del templo donde se celebran las misas.
In that last brown row that you can see in the picture above is where my father's ashes will rest, in the third row from the bottom to the top. We are really satisfied with this acquisition, plus there is room for three more family members, which assures us that more members of our family could rest in this same place and together. This area is very nice because although it is not appreciated there is a small swimming pool in the area of the silver in the lower part where the water flows constantly and adds to the sound of nature, it really is a place that conveys a lot of peace.
En esa última hilera color café que pueden apreciar en la fotografía de arriba es donde descansarán las cenizas de mi padre, en la tercera fila de abajo hacia arriba. Nos encontramos realmente satisfechos de esta adquisición, además de que hay espacio para tres familiares más, lo que nos asegura que más miembros de nuestra familia podrían descansar en este mismo sitio y juntos. Es muy agradable esa zona porque aunque no se aprecia hay una pequeña piscina en la zona de las platas en la parte de abajo donde el agua fluye constantemente y se suma al sonido de la naturaleza, de verdad es un sitio que transmite mucha paz.
A very special feature of this church is that the Blessed Sacrament of the Altar, the most precious commodity in every Catholic parish in the world, is located in a separate area to the left of the altar. In this area there is air conditioning because it is already finished and closed. It is also the only part at the moment where you can see the Catholic images, such as this Resurrected Jesus that you see here on the side and that honors the name of the church. The ceiling is beautiful, it is lined with a blue sky where white doves fly and in the center there is a big and strong rock that is used as an altar and follows the rustic design of the temple as such. Undoubtedly it is a dream space and I think the pictures I took do not do full merit to so much beauty.
Una característica muy especial de esta iglesia es que el Santísimo Sacramento del Altar, el bien más preciado en cada parroquia católica del mundo se encuentra en un sitio aparte, a la izquierda del altar. En esta zona sí existe aire acondicionado porque ya está terminada y está cerrada. También es la única parte de momento donde se pueden apreciar las imágenes católicas, como este Jesús Resucitado que ven aquí al lado y que hace honores al nombre de la iglesia. El techo es precioso, está forrado de un cielo azul donde vuelan palomas blancas y en el centro hay una roca grande y fuerte que se usa como altar y sigue el diseño rústico del templo como tal. Sin duda alguna es un espacio de ensueño y creo que las fotografías que tomé no hacen mérito total a tanta belleza.
I am very pleased to have known this place, it is a beauty in the middle of the city. I hope to continue to appreciate the growth and construction of the church, because I will continue to visit my dad's ashes and celebrate the holy mass in thanksgiving for the repose of his soul. These pictures were taken with my Tecno Pova II, and I did not edit them. I say goodbye to all of you very grateful for the visit and the support you give to my publications and I give you the best picture I took for the end. A photo taken from the back of the church towards the altar, where there is a beautiful and colossal cross made of windows and that seen from afar is reflected in the new and freshly polished floor of the church. A work of art for the delight of all its visitors...
Estoy muy complacido de haber conocido este sitio, es una belleza en medio de la ciudad. Espero seguir apreciando el crecimiento y construcción de la iglesia, porque seguiré yendo a visitar las cenizas de mi papá y celebrar la santa misa en acción de gracias al descanso de su alma. Estas fotografías fueron tomadas con mi Tecno Pova II, y no les realicé ninguna edición. Me despido de todos ustedes muy agradecido por la visita y el poyo que brindan a mis publicaciones y les regalo la mejor fotografía que tomé para el final. Una foto capturada desde el fondo de la iglesia hacia el altar, donde existe una hermosa y colosal cruz hecha de ventanas y que vista desde lejos se refleja en el piso nuevo y recién pulido de la iglesia. Una obra de arte para el deleite de todos sus visitantes...

Greetings dear @jesuslnrs. Thank you for your sincere dedication, appreciation, and remarkable contributions to our beloved community. Until your next epic content, we wish you the best always! 😀
Brother this church is the one located in the Base Aragua urbanization right?... if so, how far they have come with it since I left Venezuela, it looks spectacular both inside and out!!!!
They wanted to make it so modern that many people will want to attend masses and visit their deceased relatives, I have been amazed at how luxurious it is looking already!!!!
Its interior design is very simple, it gives amplitude to the place and the colors certainly transmit rest; its exterior spaces allow the meetings between relatives and with a very positive vibe, without a doubt you chose the perfect place for the ashes of your beloved father.... well done my Bro!!!
How nice this post was, you took me to a place to visit as a family and more to connect spiritually with God in a very different way...I really liked it!!!!!
I send you a big hug bro, thanks for sharing this phase of your personal process and that of your family..... God bless you always, I love you very much... You Rockkk!!!!! 🙏💖
Hermano esta iglesia es la que se encuentra en la urbanización Base Aragua cierto?... si es así vaya que han avanzado con ella desde que me fui de Venezuela, se ve espectacular tanto por dentro como por fuera!!!
Se nota que quisieron hacerla de una forma tan moderna que de ese modo muchas personas querrán asistir a las misas y a visitar a sus parientes fallecidos, he quedado sorprendido por lo lujosa que se está viendo ya!!
Su diseño interior está muy sencillo, da amplitud al lugar y los colores ciertamente transmiten descanso; sus espacios exteriores permiten los encuentros entre familiares y con una vibra muy positiva, sin duda eligieron el lugar perfecto para las cenizas de tu amado padre... bien hecho mi Bro!!!
Qué bonito ha sido este post, me llevaste a un sitio que se puede visitar en familia y más para conectar espiritualmente con Dios de una forma muy distinta... me gustó mucho!!!
Te mando un gran abrazo hermano, gracias por compartir esta fase de tu proceso personal y el de tu familia... Dios los bendiga siempre, te quiero mucho...You Rockkk!!! 🙏💖
That same one is Fernandillo, there is still a lot to do, but believe me it is going very well. I also visited it many years ago and there was no life yet, but they are putting a lot of heart into the facilities. The whole design seems to be very simple, but who really knows what the final result will be like. What is certain is that I will continue to visit this temple for many years to come and I will be aware of everything. God bless you too Fercho... I hope I get a tour to Colombia.
Muy bonita la iglesia mi hermano de pana que si 🙌😀💛 y conocernos en persona... eso está escrito 🙏💖!!!
Lovely pictures brother..
Your phone has a powerful lense because without editing, those pictures are clean and clear.
I think there is nothing wrong with making the choice to use the new tent since it is closer to home where you can often come and visit..
I bring you greetings and I hope you are doing much better now brother..
Thanks Ovy! First, anything closer to home is much better because life is pretty busy lately. And second, yes, I love the pictures from my cellular equipment, I can't say the same for the sound of the videos, but I will slowly acquire good tools to keep working on my blog. I always appreciate your friendship and your visit brother. Happy day!...
It is a very beautiful church, simple, spacious and from the photos you can see a lot of peace. The place where your father's ashes will rest looks very nice and the sound of the water seems to me that it is something very nice and peaceful for when you go to visit him.
Hello! You are right, I know it will be a place that will always bring me a lot of peace. You have really captured a lot through the few pictures I have shared. It looks simple to me too, but it has something magical and very unique compared to other temples. Thank you very much for visiting my post, I send you a friendly hug...
It's a building with extraordinary architecture. It looks very different from other buildings and very geometric. It's great to get and know interesting places from another world. Nice to meet you.hello @jesuslnrs
Hello, you are right. What is most striking is how different it is from other temples, and as I say in the post, many details are still being done. I know that the final result will be very beautiful. I appreciate your visit, I send you a hug!...
It is a nice place, I really like the geometry of its facade. It is quite interesting and different. It will be interesting, to see the result when they finish the construction process.
The truth is that I am now looking forward to seeing these facilities completed, although I am sure it will be some time yet. Thank you very much for visiting the post, it really offers something different in architecture and it is very nice to know temples like this. I am a fan of Catholic churches, each one has something wonderful to offer. Happy day my friend!...
a very nice place, I always pass by there and this is the first time I see how the whole structure looks like, too nice.
Ah, good to see a fellow countryman from Maracay. Well brother, you see there are many wonders near us, you just have to have a clinical eye to match them. Thank you very much for visiting my post my friend!...
A very peaceful place, where I see a place that is good for both living and dead humans. You took some very clear photos, described them well.
You said it very well, considering the facilities it is a perfect place for the living and the dead seeking peace and the presence of God. I found peace while I was there and I am glad to know that I will continue to visit this temple for a long time to come. Thank you very much for your comment, I am glad you liked the post...
Qué hermosura de iglesia, amigo @jesuslnrs, muchas gracias por obsequiarnos esta "visita guiada" a ese lugar como tú dices "de ensueño" donde se ve que el diseño fuerç realizado con gran cariño y conocimiento. Hemosísima la imagen del Jesús resucitado, bellísima la cruz con el efecto del reflejo en el iso, me encantaron esa s imágenes de palomas volando como arte en el techo y, muy importante, elegantes y sobrios los columbarios. Gracias por compartir. Dios les bendiga siempre a usted y su familia.
¡Querida Carmen!. Que bueno leerte fuera del Hive Open Mic. Muchas gracias por tu cariño y por visitar este post. Tomé las fotografías pensando incluso en cómo las iba a mostrar en esta comunidad. De hecho te invito a que participes también por acá. En este espacio de Hive se trata de compartir y enaltecer la arquitectura y el diseño, y estoy seguro que La Villa tiene mucho que ofrecer. Si gustas puedes encontrar las reglas en el inicio de la comunidad. Te envío un abrazo y nos vemos por ahí...
Hermano @jesuslnrs, tiempo sin visitarle en el mundo de hive. Me agrada ver que todo va mejor respecto a tu familia y los sucesos con Don Armando. Creo que cualquier sitio en Maracay habría sido perfecto, ya que es su ciudad natal y la de todos ustedes, pero que esté en un lugar con tanta santidad como este vale mucho. Eres una persona muy valiente y muchas gracias por dar ejemplo con este y otros escritos que te han servido para drenar un poco el dolor. Muy bueno el post y las fotografías, el lugar es muy bonito en todos los sentidos.
¡Hola Jhony!. También estuve un tiempo sin verte por ahí, pero creo que hemos regresado a Hive juntos. Esta comunidad es muy buena, te invito a leer las reglas y sumarte a esta experiencia de la Arquitectura y el Diseño en Hive. Un abrazo para ti hermano...
what an extraordinary architecture, I was amazed by how they made the church extraordinary.
And they still continue to give it special touches that will surely make it a much more beautiful temple. Thank you very much for stopping by and sharing your comment with me...
