Santa Anita is a place on the side of the Huitepec mountain to the west of San Cristobal de las Casas, in the Mexican state of Chiapas. In 2006, after dreaming about it, Gregorio Gómez Díaz went to the forest and found a huge rock with an image of Christ, believed to be the Señor de Tila. The place has been converted into a target of pilgrims from nearby Chamula and other places, who offer flowers, fruits and candles to the site. A church to be built at the site is in planning stage and awaiting approval by the church authorities. The image has been named the Señor de Tila del Huitepec.
