El Tiradito is in Barrio Viejo in Tucson, Arizona, and is supposedly the world's sole Catholic shrine for a sinner.
Admire the adobe architecture, light a candle, leave a wish. If your candle stays lit all night, your wish will come true, or so they say. The legend of El Tiradito ( the castaway because he was a sinner) have different versions- everything from complicated love triangles to a man struck and killed by a bullet while walking past a bar-room door. El Tiradito is supposedly buried there.

Revered by locals for over a hundred years, this public shrine placed on the National Historic Register in 1971, which saved it from repeated plans to tear it down or move it.
