每年，墨西哥各州都有超过二百万人沿着117公里长的朝圣者路线，走过Jalisco州的山脉，他们的最终目的是去Talpa de Allenda参观圣母罗萨作为奉献、信仰、净化的行为。这种“宗教旅行”多年来都没有得到来自政府的认可和支持。
直到最近，在建筑师组成的国际团队对这个设计项目的协助之下，Jalisco州的政府支持并贯彻实施了包括收容所、避难所、观景点等基础设施的建设。这些举措使得朝圣者的路程更加稳定和长久，同时也为沿线居民带来了收益。
对于观景台，设计师有两点要提的是：为了使人们在步道的最高点看到山谷全景，观景台需要有前后两个观看点。我们还发现，如何创造出坚固的隐蔽处，以及如何能让它在同一时间前后通风尤其重要。这是漫漫朝圣路中两个不可或缺的组成部分。
对于这个建筑单体，我们把它假象成了一个组件，因为比起建筑体它更像一个基础设施。事实上，我们考虑过在建筑悬臂末端收集雨水，顶棚上收集的雨水可以形成一面水平的镜子，在某个反射光线的时刻，建筑体看起来就像是透明结构的。

From the architect. La Ruta del Peregrino (Pilgrim’s Route) has an approximate length of 117 kilometers. Over two million people every year travel from different states of Mexico to walk through the mountain range of Jalisco. Starting in the town of Ameca, their final destination is Talpa de Allenda where they go to visit Virgin Rosario as an act of devotion, faith, and purification.
This annual pilgrimage is mostly walked during holy week by people of all ages. This ‘religious tourism’ has endured for years without recognition or support from the government until recently.
With the help of an international team of architects to design the various parts of the project, the government of Jalisco has supported the implementation of infrastructure for the pilgrims such as shelters, look out points, sanctuaries, and basic services to make the route more permanent and help create an income for people living along the route.
THE LOOK OUT POINT
Here there were two things to see: the panoramic view of the valley resulting from being at the highest point of the trail, and the crosses. Thus, this lookout needed to have a double front. We also found it important to create a good shadow, hard and solid, as well as cross ventilation at the same time, two invaluable components on a pilgrimage of a long walk.
For construction, we imagined a monolithic element, more like infrastructure than architecture. In actuality, we have considered collecting water in the extreme of the cantilever; the accumulated water in the shade will function as a horizontal mirror introducing at least at some moment in the year a kind of shine to an otherwise opaque structure.
