Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

We stopped here on a business drive through to Junín so we didn’t go out of our way to see this. I was struck by the similarity to Notre Dame; especially the mini spire in the back. It didn’t have the wooden structure inside but it was a close replica of the Paris icon.

Beautifully restored, this impressive basilica is well worth a day's trip to see. You can take a tour or go on your own. Souvenir shops line the long approach to the basilica and dot the square in front of it. The best shots of the entire basilica can be taken from there. The architecture is fabulous.
Wear comfortable shoes and bring a lunch. We walked around to find a decent place to eat close-by but found none. Just an ice-cream shop and a pizzeria. The local restaurants on the square are third-rate and get overly crowded with tourists. You will have to wait a long time to get a table, if you get one at all, and food is under par. We could not raise a waiter and when we finally ordered, the food was badly cooked and arrived lukewarm.

Nice quiet town with this amazing Basilica. Words can not describe this amazing site. Breath taking architecture a total shrine. Inside the basilica your eyes get lost seeing so much beauty. if you visit lujan you must visit the museum for a fee. but is worth it. you can see all the virgins from the world. very interesting.

Worth to listen to the priest at least for a while, it was fun and participative. The church is in good shape. All around the church there are little kiosks with souvenirs. Nice to walk around. Behind the church there is an entertainment park that is fantastic. I recommend the telespheric there in which you cross the Lujan river.

Though a Catholic religious site in itself, the Basilica offers all visitors alike the chance of learning about the history of the town of Lujan and its patron saint. There is a famous pilgrimage that takes place in October every year.Unfortunately, this wonderful construction suffers, at times, the threat of floods.

Impressive church from outside, but inside nothing dramatic. The Basilica is the only attraction in town, to maybe worth ignoring, if You have limited time available. On other hand You can take the bus from Once Station and pay 10 pesos for the trip.

the basilica is a good place to visit , half of a day is enough to make a full tour inside , despite the crowd of visitors the place remains quiet without noise .

A beautiful Basilica worth the drive. I’m amazed I missed it on my previous trip to Argentina.
The town is cute and there are plenty of decent restaurants to eat near the Basilica or in town.
Very tourist-y but that’s expected.

Incredible Basilica, it isa must if you are near lujan. The building began in 1895. The surroundings are also of those years.

Hola Verónica desconozco. Lamento no poder ayudarte. Imagino que te pedirán el haber realizado los cursos de preparación para los padrinos y padres y un certificado de nacimiento. Me cuentas como les va, saludos
