Me ha encantado. El Santuario de la Fuensanta es un lugar que te deja con la boca abierta, la vista es impresionante y la historia que tiene es increíble. La arquitectura barroca es preciosa y el entorno natural es espectacular. Si vas a Murcia, no te lo pierdas, y si eres de Murcia, visítalo Me gustó la tranquilidad del lugar, se respira un ambiente muy especial... y la devoción que se siente por la Virgen de la Fuensanta es auténtica. La subida puede ser un poco complicada, pero merece la pena. Recomiendo ir muy temprano para evitar la multitud y aprovechar el amanecer, es una maravilla. Y si puedes, si vas por la tarde, quédate a ver la puesta de sol y la ciudad por la noche

Bonito lugar donde poder visitar un monumento, sin duda, prestigio y orgullo de Murcia. Varias rutas de senderismo a los alrededores y vistas impresionantes de la ciudad. Hay un bar donde poder picar algo aunque con precios algo excesivos en mi opinión.

Es una capilla muy bien cuidada, tiene varias imágenes de cristo y de la virgen, vidrieras por las que estaba pasando el sol. Las vistas de Murcia son fantásticas. Tiene una tienda de recuerdos que venden lotería de Navidad con 3€ de recargo para las monjas. La fuente Santa está bastante deteriorada, sin cuidado ninguno al igual que algunos jardines traseros que dan a la fuente. Lo mejor de todo la capilla y las vistas.
