I’m glad about the feature you did re Baclayon church. My father-in-law used to be a parish priest in this church. He was the one who started the museum project. He was also the founder of the Immaculata High School beside the church.

nakaka-amaze naman yung egg white na ginamit.. to build that huge church malamang nga sobrang hirap ang dinanas ng mga slaves during that time yun ang nakakalungkot dun.. but nonetheless the church is a real beauty…

San Agustin really has the distinction of being the oldest church since were talking about the construction of the present edifice, not the founding of the town as most other places inscribe on the facade of their churches.

As for the mural? It was constroversial since when they planned to do the “restoration” it didn’t pass the correct process of consulting and having trained conservationists and restorers. They even painted the mural where originally. there weren’t.

aba naman…ang ganda. buti ka pa nakapasok. noong nagpunta ko diyan, kasalukuyang inaayos yung loob, may mga restorations silang ginagawa kaya hindi sila nagpapasok ng tao sa loob baka daw maaksidente. hanggang labas lang ako. i like old structures, architectures, lalo na yung super luma at tipong babagsak na. sarap nilang buhayin sa camera. nahirapan din akong kunan ang facade ng simbahang ito dahil napaka-dull ng itsura, hehe. buti ka pa my asul na asul na langit pang-contrast. noong nandoon ako medyo masungit ang langit. wide angle lens ba ginamit mo? nahirapan ako sa angulo kase nasa tabi na siya ng kalsada tapos, hindi pa pang WA ang lenteng gamit ko. muntik-muntikan pa akong mabundol. peborit ko ang first and last shots. galing.

I’ve been to this place many times. It’s beautiful. They also have this museum. Pero off-limits ang camera.

baclayon as one of the oldest but not the oldest…

note legazpi also had the blood compact there (but not the first one in the soon to be known philippines)

did you know those walls were made of egg whites and lime to hold them together?

wish to go back to bohol one of these days
