Natural scenery
Notre Dame Cave, on the hillside of Saipan, is a local Catholic holy place. There are towering banyan trees and a statue of the Virgin on the mountain wall. Local people often come here for baptism and prayers. The environment is located in the middle of the mountain, surrounded by trees, and the entrance is very simple. A clock stood by the door. Walking into the interior, there is a huge banyan tree in front of you, with branches falling vertically from the top. There are also plantains and various flowers around. At the end of the internal facilities, you can see the statue of the Virgin on the mountain wall, with hands folded, very kind. The front of the statue of the Virgin is fenced, and tourists are not allowed to enter in non-major festivals, but they can rest on the chairs outside. On the right side in front of the statue of the Virgin, there is a small candle room, where the locals can light candles again after praying. On the left side in front of the statue of the Virgin, there is a well, which is the only source of fresh water on the island. When you come here, you can scoop up a ladle of water to wash your hands or take a sip. Because of this, there is fresh water here, and during World War II, it was also used as a field hospital to treat the wounded. After the visit, there is a small shop at the entrance, where you can buy some souvenir handicrafts on the island.
