Courtyard at the Basilica of the Virgin of Guadalupe. The Virgin appeared to Juan Diego and revealed her will to have a temple dedicated to her at that site. The shrine's official website has lots of additional information: http://www.sancta.org.
Quote from the Virgin from one of her manifestations to Juan Diego.
Here is a translation: "The words of Saint Mary of Guadalupe to Juan Diego. I am the forever virgin Mary, Mother of true God, author of life, creator of all and Lord of heaven and earth, which is in all places. I ardently desire that you raise for me here a temple where, as the loving mother of you and your fellow humans I can show the mercy and compassion that I have for natural beings and for all who love me and search for me. "
