Mexico City: More than 5 million visitors are expected at the mammoth Basilica of Our Lady of Guadalupe on Thursday, a national holiday honoring the country's patron saint. About 20 million visit annually to see St. Juan Diego's 482-year-old cloak bearing an image of the Virgin Mary, beheld from a moving sidewalk to ease crowding. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
