Balay Dako sa BatoBalay Dako sa BatoBalay Dako; Balay Dako Nga BatoRegion VIZarragaIloiloRegistered Property, Municipality of Zarraga, IloiloThe house was built between 1865-1885. Its ground structure resembles a prison garrison which was used to imprison the suspected supporters of the rebellion.
During the American regime, Calixto Gustilo, married to a Poblador, who was the first Gobernadorcillo/Presidente Municipal of Zarraga and descendant of Juan. With the establishment of civil government by the Americans on April 11, 1901, the Filipinos were given the right to elect their public officials for the first time. In the elections for Presidente Municipal, Fruto Gregorius and Petre Gustilo tied for the position and the job was given to the Vice- Presidente- elect, Calixto Gustilo. He remained in this position until 1904 when Zarraga became an arrabal of Sta. Barbara. Augusto Poblador Gustilo, with green eyes , was born in 1903, married to Evangelina Silva, was the last official resident of Balay nga Dako. At the age of 38, when the Japanese invaded the Pilippine Islands, he was mistaken as an American/ American guerilla. Augusto Poblador Gustilo was supportive of the resistance. A few World War II rifles were found in his possession and surrendered to the authorities during Martial law. It was proved that he was in the resistance, but the Japanese never caught him with guns. The Balay nga Dako was remodelled by the Japanese between 1941-1943. Luckily, he was not tortured brutally but suffered a lot during the second World War.
Parola ng Isla CalabazasEl Faro De Islas CalabazasParolaRegion VIAjuyIloiloRegistered Property, Municipality of Ajuy, IloiloFaro De Islaz Calabazas was built above a small hill overlooking the Guimaras Strait leading towards the port of Ajuy with Housing Pavilion and service buildings for the keeper and his family. The tower is of the tourelle type. The top of the lighthouse is a dome, similar to that of Cape Bojeador Lighthouse’s. The original tower collapsed over the years and was replaced by a modern light tower similar to those of Islas Gigantes and Islote Manigonigo.
Currently, the old lighthouse is being restored. However, only the remaining Housing Pavilion and Services Building ( i.e. Ruins, Broken “Tisa”) could only be found in the area. The tiles entirely made out of baked clay during the Spanish colonial period as well as thick vines twining on the broken walls can be found around the area.
The Parola is one of the 27 major lighthouses built to illuminate the Philippine archipelago during the Spanish colonial period. The light from the lighthouse served as warning to fisher folks approaching Pepita's Rock.
Bantayog ni Rizal sa ZarragaRizal Monument ZarragaDr. Jose Rizal MonumentRegion VIZarragaIloiloRegistered Property, Municipality of Zarraga, IloiloIn the whole Philippine archipelago, the statue of the National Hero Dr. Jose Rizal is found seated only in the town of Zarraga. During 1951, our local leaders under the leadership of Mayor Porferio Pinuela erected this historic landmark which is distinctly Zarraga’s own pride. Old folks would jokingly say that “Rizal got tired of standing in monuments of the rest of the country that he sat down upon reaching Zarraga.” On a serious note, this sitting hero depicts Zarraga’s extreme hospitality.

In 1917, Zarraga Central Elementary School was founded at the site where the present Rural Health Center stood. It started taking shape as an institution of learning 102 years ago with Grades I to III only. When the Municipal Government was established in 1921, Grades IV, V and VI were added together with the construction of the old Municipal building. Although Zarraga was a part of the town of Sta. Barbara then, the Zarraga children were not deprived of learning the basic education. in 1930, the prominent Delgado Family, donated on two occasions a total of three hectare land as a school site amidst the family's vast land near the Janipa-an Bridge. When the war broke out in 1941, records of the school were lost and destroyed, but some were saved.
Since 1975, a plan was drawn-up so that several school buildings were constructed under different principals, supervisors and municipal officials. Many teachers that served during this period lived up to this time and their dedication and loyalty to the
service cannot be ignored.
In 1976, the Ministry of Public Works has discovered a "Flowing well" in the
Central School giving relief to the school and community because of the scarcity of water. Up to this day, the water with natural gas is still flowing and supplying 150 gallons of water per minute to nearby rice plantations.
Zarraga Central Elementary School is the second school that was established in the Municipality of Zarraga.

Bahay Ansestral na Art Deco ni Generoso VillanuevaGeneroso Villanueva Art Deco Ancestral HouseDaku BalayRegion VIBacolod CityHighly Urbanized CItyImportant Cultural Property, National Museum; Registered Property, Province of Negros OccidentalThe home of Generoso M. Villanueva, a prominent sugar planter, and his wife Paz took three years to build from 1933-1936. It was the first art deco structure to be built in Bacolod City. Designed solely by the owner and built by Cebu engineer Salvador Cinco, the three-story, poured-concrete steel reinforced building with graceful curved balconies, parapets, and porthole steel-cased windows looks like the Titanic on land. It was known among the locals as the Boat House. Among family, though, it was simply called Daku Balay (the big house).

One family story about Daku Balay was the family patriarch built it to fulfill a vow he had made to someday build the tallest house in the city so he could look down on the house of a business and political rival. The majestic rise of the 5,000-square-meter Daku Balay, with a five-level roof deck of over 600sm was the tallest building in the city until 1959 when the Philippine National Bank was built. It was the first building on Negros Island to have an elevator, manufactured by Inclinator, Philadelphia, USA.

During World War II, Bacolod City was occupied by the Japanese forces on May 21, 1942. Lieutenant General Takeshi Kawano Kono, the Japanese commanding officer of the 77th Infantry Brigade, 102nd Division, seized the home of Don Generoso Villanueva—which served as the "seat of power” and being the tallest building in the city served as the watchtower of the city.

Bahay Ansestral ni Don Gil LopezDon Gil Lopez Ancestral HouseRegion VICadiz CityNegros OccidentalRegistered Property, Province of Negros OccidentalOne such example is the Lopez house in Cadiz, which was first built by the family’s patriarch Gil Villanueva Lopez in the late 1800s. It was refurbished and expanded by his descendants over the decades.

The late violinist Gil Lopez Kabayao and his pianist-sister Merceditas, who belong to the third generation, grew up in the house. Although the clan derived its money from vast tracts of land planted to sugar, many of its members were also musically inclined.

Unlike other houses in the area, the Japanese didn’t turn their ancestral home into an army barracks or, worst, a brothel during the war. Maria Makiling “Blondie” Ascalon Millward, niece of Kabayao, who wasn’t born yet in the ’40s, attributes this to the fact that the family’s musical talent impressed Japanese officials.

It was, indeed, a house built of strong materials, which was meant to last for a long time. The ground floor is of thick concrete walls and the second floor has wood panel exterior walls.

The house is elevated from the ground level to provide sufficient space for a “silong”. This added space below the floors help cool the house interiors. Vent openings on this “slong” are secured with iron grilles.

Door openings are provided with thick wood panel doors. Above the main doorways are grilled transom windows to accommodate more light and air to the interior spaces. The windows are tall and wide, with “ventanilla” openings below them. As in many old ancestral houses, these window openings are secured with sturdy wrought-iron grilles in intricate designs.

It was built in the 1930s and its architecture is a combination of Castilian and Tuscan and comprises three stories including the tower room, known as the torre and it is beside the Dizon-ramos museum.

During World War II, Bacolod City was occupied by the Japanese forces in May 21, 1942 under the command of Lieutenant General Takeshi Kono, the Japanese commanding officer of the 77th Infantry Brigade, 102nd Division. The House of Don Mariano Ramos, being the tallest building in the city, was seized by the Japanese, and used it as the watchtower over the city. His family was forced to retreat at the Municipal of Murcia, where they spent most of their time during the war era. The city was liberated by joint Filipino and American forces on May 29, 1945. It took time to rebuild the city after liberation Don Mariano were saved from destruction by the retreating Japanese force

Bahay Ansestral nina Don Efigenio Lizares at Doña Enrica AlunanDon Efigenio Lizares and Doña Enrica Alunan Ancestral HouseBalay ni Tana DicangRegion VITalisay CityNegros OccidentalImportant Cultural Property, National Museum; Registered Property, Province of Negros OccidentalBalay ni Tana Dicang stands majestically in the heart of Talisay, Negros Occidental. Otherwise known as the bahay na bato it was built in ca. 1883 in a 6,000 square meter property. Owing to the diligence of the descendants of Don Efigenio Lizares and Doña Enrica Alunan, its original structure and authentic and antique furniture, ornaments and accessories, including the China porcelain and indigenous items in the kitchen are well-preserved to this day.

It has 18 rooms, most of which are bedrooms, the biggest being the formal living room and dining rooms. One or two of which were permanently assigned to their regular guests like the late Presidents Manuel L. Quezon and Sergio Osmeña, who had made the Lizares home the presidential abode in that part of Negros. One can almost imagine two late Philippine presidents actually sleeping and dining in the house, and perhaps how the policies in the sugar industry, at the time, were crafted.

Talisay City, Negros Occidental
Talisay has always been a part of my childhood. Before moving to Bacolod in 1953-54, we lived in the town of La Castellana. During the week, while going to primary school in La Salle, my brother Bonnie (Rene), cousin Jung Carlos Rivilla III and I would stay in Talisay with our Lolo Emilio Benedicto Camon, half brother of my grandfather, our “Papaito” Don Carlos Benedicto Rivilla. Right next door in front of the town plaza and the town hall was this beautiful imposing mansion.
This is the house of Don Simplicio Alunan Lizares, one of the seventeen children of Efegenio Lizares and Enrica Alunan, more known as “Tana Dikang” of Talisay. He married Eleuteria Treyes and they had eleven (11) children: The eldest, 1.) Socorro married Dr. Nicolas Escario of Cebu; 2.) Mario Miguel Arcangel died young at 3 years of age; 3.) Rodolfo "Dolfing" married Luisa Armstrong, an American mestiza; 4.) Buenvenido Mario "Batoy", who served as Mayor of Talisay for 24 years married Xenia Coscolluela; 5.) Lucrecia married Dr. Romeo Gustilo, one of the founders of Makati Medical Center; 6.) Simplicio Jr. "Nene", who died in a plane crash married Carmen Hermosisima; 7.) Amelo "Meling" married Teresita Valderrama; 8.) Aurora, married and divorced James Wagoner; 9.) Florinda "Linda" married Miguel Angel Cano; 10.) Eustaquia, known as “Beauty”; single and 11.) Nonata, single.
His wife Eleuteria died on March 19,1927, after giving birth to Nonata. During his life as a widower, he sired more children with two women thereafter. (12.) Dario with Amalia Perez; and three (3) with Matilde Williams, namely (13.) Roberto married Martha de Monteverde; (14.) Erlinda married Protector Celino; and (15.) Carmela married Benjamin Du of Cebu. Don Simplicio later remarried to Amalia Perez, who all his children learned to love and respect, as she brought them all up as her own.
Don Simplicio Lizares was one of the signatories of the 1935 Constitution and served as Mayor of Talisay. Until his death in the mid-fifties he was involved in business and politics for the good of the town. He managed both the Talisay-Silay Sugar Central and Danao Sugar Central and was the first president of the Planters’ Association.
In 1936 he commissioned Juan F. Nakpil (May 26, 1899 – May 7, 1986) one of Manila’s finest architects to design him a house. It was originally intended for a property along Dewey Boulevard (now Roxas Boulevard) in Pasay City, which was larger. Which is why according to his son Mario, the house looks too big for the lot, where it now stands. It is in Italianate - Art Deco style popular during the 1930's here in the Philippines. In 1973, Juan F. Nakpil was named one of the National Artists for architecture, and tapped as the Dean of Filipino Architects.
Noteworthy as one enters the house is the attention to detail. The flooring design is exquisitely done using three types of wood: narra, molave, and kamagong. The base flooring, supporting the parquet is made of narra planks. The living room flooring design depicts the carabao, the beast of burden, the sun rays, which nourishes the sugar cane plantation and the L-monogrammed sacks of sugar on 4 corners. The ceiling is inlaid with capiz shells, very in Art Deco - Filipino in motif. This detailing is seen all throughout the house in different variations, a tribute to Filipino creativity.
Looking around in the huge spacious living room are portraits of the patriarch and his family, as well as bronze statues of Greek and Roman deities acquired during their countless travels abroad.
The formal dining room is located on the second floor. There is an imposing dining table that could comfortably sit twenty-four for dinner. Surrounding the dining table, the flooring design is patterned after the piano keys. Don Simplicio would always sit and dine here in his formal coat and tie. He required his children to be dressed at the dining table at all times. When not properly dressed, he would ask them if they lacked clothes to wear!
Just barely five years living in this beautiful house, war broke out and they had to abandon it. In their absence, the Japanese Command occupied the house and commandeered their vehicles, including the priced Packard. The family with the entire household fled to Bantayan Island on a “lancha” fishing boat. They brought with them their valuables, including all the fine silver and porcelain and even the piano. During dinner on the “lancha”, the servants decked the table in all its finery and they would serve the family wearing their white gloves. The women played the piano after dinner, while the men smoked their cigars. Even in the harshest conditions, Don Simplicio insisted to keep his lifestyle and so he did - up to the very end.
Currently home to Mario Lizares, his wife Xenia and only son Victor, the Don Simplicio Lizares mansion is a work of art and a monument to the lifestyle of the sugar barons during the golden years of Negros.

When the Americans landed in Negros, many Silaynons fought against them to preserve their newly gained independence. Among those who resisted American soldiers were Melecio Severino, Miguel and Luis Genete, Melecio's nephews, and a certain police lieutenant who went to the hills later and joined the battle at Guintabuan. These men, however, surrendered later and were given amnesty.

Luis Ginete refused to accept America's rule. He continued fighting and was believed to have died during the battle at Guintabuan. The Battle of Guintabuan was the last and the most bloody encounter between the American forces and the combined soldiers of Silay and Saravia. Many Silaynons perished in that battle.

Secretary Jalandoni is pointing to an area which the present Victorias City Hall stands. Sr. Acuña Yap Quiña replied that the area is part of his hacienda Guinpana-an. He further said that “As a good citizen, I am willing to donate the piece of land provided that the seat of government will be transferred there”. Secretary Jalandoni invited him to attend the regular session so he can announce his intention to donate a piece of his property to the town.

Many soldiers perished during the war not only from the Japanese but also from the Filipino Forces.

One of the areas believed to have been the burial sites for the Japanese Soldiers was a small place in Taculing, Bacolod City. That village, now known as Rosario Heights. This is where you can find the Japanese Shrine. From the Mansilingan Road, proceed to the entrance of Rosario Heights Subdivision, then follow the concrete road leading to the Shrine.

Constructed in memory of the Japanese and Filipino Soldiers, the Shrine is built on a square platform with a circular pond where a stem of a flower sits. From the center of that flower rises a tall pencil-like stigma as if trying to reach the sky in a prayer. The front of this pond is a small concrete table where Veterans and relatives of the dead soldiers offer incense and light candles and even food to appease the souls of the dead.

Guho ng Simbahan ng San Francisco ng AssisiSaint Francis of Assisi Church RuinsRegion VIEscalante CityNegros OccidentalRegistered Property, Province of Negros OccidentalEscalante used to be known as Manlambus meaning “to strike with a club” because its coastal waters were teeming with fishes that can be caught by using a club or lambus. The capital of Escalante used to be Nueva Sevilla, a coastal community which is known today as Old Poblacion.
The Parish of St. Francis of Assisi was established by the Augustinian Recollects in 1860 when the parish separated from Silay. The parish’s territory extended from Guihulngan to Cadiz. It was the first appointed Parish Priest, Father Cipriano Navarro, who renamed Manlambus to Escalante after his Spanish hometown.
The church was made of white coral stone. Unfortunately, this once beautiful church today stands in ruins. Earthquakes and typhoons devastated the church that reconstructing it would no longer be safe. This eventually leads the parish to build a new church in the 1980s.
The St. Francis of Assisi Church Ruins of Escalante is classified as Historical Structure by virtue of NHI Resolution No. 3, series of October 22, 1991.

The Negros Occidental Provincial Capitol Building followed Daniel Burnham's Beaux Art style. When William Cameron Forbes was the governor general in the Philippines in 1904, he invited Burnham to the country, who, in turn, recommended as consulting architect to the government William E. Parsons. When he arrived in 1905, Parsons established the architectural office of the Bureau of Public Works which was composed of American and Filipino architects, such as Juan Nakpil, Tomas Mapua, and Juan de Guzman Arellano. Using the neo-classical architectural design of Burnham for the capitol, Juan Arellano executed the project.
The building is built in a shape of the letter E composed of the main entrance, which is the middle part, and of the wings on both sides of the center. The prominent feature of the central section are wide steps that lead to colonnades of about three-story high and with Corinthian capitals on the upper portion.
The works of National Artist for Sculpture Guillermo Tolentino are displayed in the capitol building and the lagoon fronting the building.

Originally founded in 1901 as the Instituto de Rizal, the school was renamed the Rizal Institute in 1903 when the American Thomasite teachers arrived in Bacolod. When it transferred to the present building in 1907, it became Bacolod High School until 1924, when it changed name to the Occidental Negros High School.
It was converted into Bacolod West Elementary School in 1932, and was renamed Rizal Elementary School in 1959.
Its original construction of wood supported by a concrete base survives. A verandah wraps around the ground floor and an old acacia tree shades its open second story. Large sliding kapis windows above ventanillas that reach to the floor open up large sections of wall to the outdoors. To maximize the interior airflow, interior partitions have rows of pierced wooden fretwork (calado) panels that meet the high ceiling, allowing air to freely circulate within the building.

Gusali ng Munisipyo ng EB MagalonaEB Magalona Municipal BuildingRegion VIEB MagalonaNegros OccidentalRegistered Property, Province of Negros OccidentalCompared with the elaborate cemetery chapels of Iloilo like in Cabatuan, Saravia’s cemetery chapel (the municipality was renamed to E. B. Magalona, but people still use the old name) is a simple brick construction found at the back end of the cemetery square. It consists of a simple arched entrance and two side windows all with metal grills. Decorative elements are limited to the simple columns that tend to fade into the background.

The pediment is at the second level with a pair of columnar finials serving as base of an elaborate metal cross. The center, I presume, might have a bigger metal cross but is now supplanted with one made of wood. The overall vertical movement of the facade gives it height.

The interior is already renovated and the roofing replaced with galvanized iron sheets. At both side walls, modern niches were being constructed by carving out the walls.

Kamposanto ng EB MagalonaEB Magalona Cemetery ChapelSaravia CamposantoRegion VIEB MagalonaNegros OccidentalRegistered Property, Province of Negros OccidentalCompared with the elaborate cemetery chapels of Iloilo like in Cabatuan, Saravia’s cemetery chapel (the municipality was renamed to E. B. Magalona, but people still use the old name) is a simple brick construction found at the back end of the cemetery square. It consists of a simple arched entrance and two side windows all with metal grills. Decorative elements are limited to the simple columns that tend to fade into the background.

The pediment is at the second level with a pair of columnar finials serving as base of an elaborate metal cross. The center, I presume, might have a bigger metal cross but is now supplanted with one made of wood. The overall vertical movement of the facade gives it height.

The interior is already renovated and the roofing replaced with galvanized iron sheets. At both side walls, modern niches were being constructed by carving out the walls.

A small village inhabited by Malayans called Magsungay was placed under the protection of St. Sebastian by early Christian missionaries during the 1700s. This village was later came to be known as San Sebastian de Magsungay and was put under the governance of Bernardo de los Santos, the village’s first gobernadorcillo. Due to widespread Moro pirate attacks, the people of Magsungay moved to a new settlement upon the hilly terrain called bakólod, the precursor of the modern-day city of Bacolod. In 1806, Fr. Leon Pedro was appointed as its first parish priest. Years later, Fr. Gonzaga, a young priest from Barcelona, would envision the construction of the San Sebastian Church.

Construction of the structure in its present form began on 27 April 1876 under the leadership of Fr. Mauricio Ferrero, OAR. Prison labor was provided by the politico-military Governor, Roman Pastor, who prevailed upon Fr. Ferrero to also design and supervise the construction of a stone prison, the old Provincial Jail. Coral stone from the island of Guimaras was used as the primary building material. Hardwood from trees in Palawan was used for wooden portions of the structure. Fr. Mariano de Avila's bell was installed in the bell tower during the church's construction. Bishop Mariano Cuartero of the Archdiocese of Jaro consecrated the church on the eve of the feast of Saint Sebastian, 19 January 1882. The following day Bishop Cuartero celebrated pontifical mass before a congregation of government and Church officials of the province and Iloilo, parish priests and leading citizens.

Kolehiyo ng La Consolacion-BacolodLa Consolacion College BacolodRegion VIBacolod CityHighly Urbanized CItyRegistered Property, Province of Negros OccidentalThe history of La Consolacion College goes back to March 12, 1919 when the first group of Augustinian sisters with Sister Tomasa de la Sagrada Familia as superior, arrived in Bacolod, after a two year sojourn in Sibalom, Antique where the presence of a Catholic school was strongly opposed by the Aglipayans.
The Bishop's Palace then became its first school building, where ten years later, LCC graduated its first batch of Grade School and High School students. March of 1929 marked the first graduation. From the Bishop's residence, LCC moved along Justicia and Washington Streets (Now Galo and Gatuslao) where an imposing two storey L-shaped school building was constructed. With the rise of this new structure, LCC offered its first collegiate course, the elementary Teacher's Certificate in 1938.
Through the war years, the school was abandoned temporarily. It was during this time that LCC suffered some set-backs until its restoration from the invading aliens in 1943. The post-war era that followed saw the rapid growth of the school from its varied course offerings to the different academic and non-academic programs and services in its curriculum. For the first time in 1948 LCC departed from its former tradition and established a Boy's High School which later commenced the entry of male population in the college halls.

Kumpanya ng Victorias MillingVictorias Milling CompanyRegion VIVictorias CityNegros OccidentalRegistered Property, Province of Negros OccidentalVictorias Milling Company, Inc. was founded on May 7, 1919 by Don Miguel Ossorio. Back then, VMC was one of the earliest modern sugar mills in the country. In the succeeding years, VMC expanded its business by establishing an agricultural research department and construction of VMC Dock. It also established a sugar refinery and began producing hydrous alcohol in Manapla. During the Japanese occupation, VMC and another sugar mill Negros Sugar Company (NONSUCO) suffered extensive damages. The latter was the very first sugar mill in the Philippines established by Don Miguel. Ossorio then decided to merge the assets of the two sugar mill with VMC as the surviving entity because it incurred less damages than.

Because of rising overhead costs, falling sugar prices, and increasing competition, VMC came up with an Alternative Rehabilitation Plan (ARP) that was approved by the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 29, 2000. As of 2010, VMC was able to pay its interest payments to date, as well as its principal loan repayments. This meant an annual interest payment of about P307.0 Million and loan principal payment of P365.0 Million to its creditor banks.

The Negros Revolution, now commemorated and popularly known as Al Cinco de Noviembre or Negros Day, was a political movement that in 1898 created a government in Negros Island in the Philippines, informally ending Spanish control of the island and resulting in a government run by the Negrense natives, at least for that part of the archipelago and for a relatively short period. The newly established Negros Republic lasted for approximately three months. American forces landed on the island unopposed on February 2, 1899, ending the island's independence.

Liwasang Bayan ng BacolodBacolod Public PlazaRegion VIBacolod CityHighly Urbanized CItyRegistered Property, Province of Negros OccidentalWhen Bacolod was declared as the capital of Negros Island in 1846, the Spanish Colonial Government in Negros set to work in creating a public plaza fronting the current Banco de Oro branch, which used to be the "Casa Real" or the official residence of the Spanish governor. However, the plaza was too small to be constituted that Don Jose Vicente Locsin Gonzaga donated a portion of his property to expand the plaza. These two lots continue to be owned by the City Government of Bacolod, while the other half was only added when the extension of Rizal Street towards San Juan Street cut off a portion of the churchyard of San Sebastian Cathedral.
His Excellency James McCloskey, Bishop of Jaro, which Bacolod previously belonged, in behalf of Monsignor Maurice Foley, the parish priest of Bacolod, granted a perpetual usufruct to the Municipal Government of Bacolod for the management of the property cut off from San Sebastian, in March 22, 1922. The bandstand was constructed in 1926 and inaugurated in 1927, as part of the plaza's reorganization to its current form as a place for recreation, political, spiritual and cultural activities. The bandstand is inscribed along the sides of the roof with the names of Western classical music composers Beethoven, Wagner, Haydn, and Mozart.

Mansyon ni Don Mariano LacsonDon Mariano Lacson MansionThe RuinsRegion VITalisay CityNegros OccidentalImportant Cultural Property, National Museum; Registered Property, Province of Negros OccidentalConstruction of the Don Mariano Lacson Mansion went in earnest. Mariano entrusted the design and building specifications to a local engineer, Luis Puentevella, and asked one of his sons to supervise the construction and make certain that the A-grade mixture of concrete was precisely poured. It was finished to perfection, upon which the Don told his children the mansion was theirs to live in for as long as they are unmarried. The family cherished in the new mansion the loving memory of Maria. And life went on beautifully for them all from then on…

The two-story mansion was of Italianate architecture as evidenced by its neo-Romanesque columns all around. Since the engineer was a Filipino, it is believed the design came from that of Maria’s ancestral mansion which was given by her father to Mariano as sample. The imprimatur of Maria’s father, a ship captain, is now clear from the shell-inspired décor all around the top edges of the mansion – the same ones that identified the homes of ship captains in New England at the time.

The foundation for the establishment of a Provincial High School in Negros Occidental was already laid in 1901 by the Division Superintendent, George W. Beattie, so that when Act 372 of the Philippine Commission was passed on March 7, 1901, empowering the Provincial Boards of the country to provide funds for the erection or renting and other expenses for a secondary school in the province, Beattie was ready for implementation of the plan, including the hiring of teachers in time for the opening of the school on July 1, 1902.
In 1927, the permanent high school building was constructed at the present site. The construction was finished about 1931. When classes were transferred to the newly constructed building in September 1931, the name inscribed in the building facade read, "Bacolod High School". This was because in the public works program under the Appropriations Act of 1927, the name appearing was: "the construction of the Bacolod High School". However, the name was never officially used, instead the name Negros Occidental High School was used in all communications. NOGCHS In 1970, NOHS was drastically changed to Negros Occidental General comprehensive High School (NOGCHS) by virtue of R.A. 5694, series of 1970. It was passed in Congress without proper consultations from the students and alumni. Enraged, the school alumni lead the legal battle to change it. It took more than ten years of legal battle by the alumni and friends to eventually pass Batas Pambansa No. 2193, series of 1983 which changed NOGCHS back to its old name, the Negros Occidental High School.

It was established by Fr. Julian Gonzaga 46 years prior to building the San Sebastian Cathedral in 1876, which is located right beside it. The construction of the Palacio Episcopal commenced in 1830 and it was finished in the 1890’s. Notably, the Spanish Military and civic officials sought refuge in the Bishop’s Palace during the revolution in 1898 which started on November 5 – now known as the Cinco de Noviembre Revolution.

Palatandaan ng Masaker sa EscalanteEscalante Massacre MarkerRegion VIEscalante CityNegros OccidentalRegistered Property, Province of Negros OccidentalThe Escalante massacre was an incident on September 20, 1985 in Escalante City, Negros Occidental, Philippines where para-military forces of the government gunned down civilians engaged in a protest-rally in commemoration of the 13th anniversary of the declaration of Martial Law. It is also called Escam - shorthand for "Escalante massacre", and sometimes Bloody Thursday, though the massacre really happened on a Friday.
The declaration of martial law on September 21, 1972 by President Ferdinand Marcos proved to be the dawning of darker days for the country. Although martial rule was lifted by Marcos on January 17, 1981, the suspension of the writ of habeas corpus was continued. Citizens merely protesting the policies of the Marcos government risked arrest without warrant and indefinite detention.Adding to the tension of the times was the proposed creation of the province of Negros del Norte from Negros Occidental. Citizens saw this as a maneuver by Marcos cronies in the northern portion of the province to consolidate more power. Negros del Norte was created from Negros Occidental on January 3, 1986, but its creation was later found to be unconstitutional and was abolished on August 18, 1986.

The Ancestral House built by General Aniceto Lacson in the 1880’s is a fine example of a 19th century Philippine Architecture known as “Bahay na Bato” or House of Stone. Uniquely, it has a balcony that surrounds the entire 2nd floor giving a panoramic view of its surroundings has its own chapel at ground level. As most Negrenses would know, General Aniceto Lacson was among those who successfully led a province-wide Katipunero revolt against the Spanish garrison in Bacolod City on November 5, 1898. When the Spanish forces surrendered, he was chosen as President of the short-lived Cantonal Republic of Negros. Today, Negros Island celibrates as an official holiday, “Cinco de Novembre” on November 5 to commemorate the surrender.
During his tenure as President of the Cantonal Republic of Negros, General Aniceto held office in this ancestral house. During those years, he was visited by General Emilio Aguinaldo, Andres Bonifacio, Antonio Luna, Emilio Jacinto, Claro M. Recto, President Manuel Quezon, President Sergio Osmeña, among other dignitaries. It is no wonder that in March 13, 2002, the National Historical Institute (NHI), thru Board Resolution No. 2, 5. 2002 declared the General Aniceto Lacson Ancestral House as a NATIONAL HISTORICAL LANDMARK, as provided for by a Presidential Decree.

It is two storeys high, largely scaled and a wooden-framed structure, which is typical of old colonial houses in the country. A prominent feature of the house is its jutting front porch which carries with it a portion of the second floor, thus, making the facade a more exciting play of the architectural masses.
A series of the concrete steps leads up to the front porch. Concrete balustrades adorn this portico with lacy metal cut work hanging as dainty fringes from the porch's ceiling. The first floor noticeable has been altered as can be seen in the concertized portion of the walls.

Built sometime in 1938, the two-storey Neo-Spanish style-house underwent renovations in mid-1970s restoring the house to its original design.It was home to husband and wife, the late German Locsin Unson and Fe de la Rama Ledesma-Unson before it welcomed guests for overnight stays.

According to the Unson couple’s youngest daughter Cristina Unson-Lacson, when the Japanese arrived in Negros before the second World War, their family evacuated and left the house vacant. ”Japanese troops occupied the house but fortunately, left it unscathed. In the later years, renovations were made and extensions both on the ground and second floors were made to accommodate the family's needs,” Cristina said.

She explained that the house was later bequeathed to the eldest and youngest daughters Ma. Lourdes and herself—Cristina—with the stipulation that it would later go to their grand-daughters, Chell and Marni. ”Marni who took up Interior Design made the present renovations and except for retaining the extensions to the big bedroom upstairs and the masters bedroom downstairs, restored the house to its original design,” Cristina said.

Pamanang Bahay ni Vicente Conlu MontelibanoVicente Conlu Montelibano Heritage HouseBalay ni Vicente Conlu MontelibanoRegion VISilay CityNegros OccidentalHeritage House, NHCP; Registered Property, Province of Negros Occidental; Registered Property, Silay CityThe Montelibano ancestral house is a typical bahay-na-bato. It has a sturdy ground floor made up of thick masonry walls and lighter framed upper storey with wood panellings for walls. The first floor has neat rectangular windows secured by wrought iron grilles. Conchas or capiz shell panels are hinged at the sides of the windows. A nursery and kindergarten school called L'Ecole occupies the first storey.

A steep flight of hardwood staircase leads to the spacious second floor. There are bedrooms, a sala, dining room, and kitchen. Obviously, this was the main living quarters of the house. The upper sides of the walls are fringed by floral wooden calados indicating the delicate woodworks used for ornamentation in the house. The staircase itself has its sides screened for a divider between this area and the stairs. Regular patterns deliately pierced into the hardwood screen lend charm to the interior.

Tall windows ventilate the house. There are conchas and persianas sliding along grooves in the window headers and sills. Instead of a small window or ventanilla below each window is a long panel of carved wood with floral design. The area above the headers are again gracefully ornamented by panels designed into oval and diamond platters.

The house has a corrugated galvanized iron roof from whose eaves hang like a fringe a dainty stream of metal cutwork. Wooden corbels decoratively prop up the eaves.

The house was built by Vicente Conlu Montelibano, a former public official of Silay during the American period. The house is a beautiful representative of the bahay-na-bato as it has evolved and developed during the American colonial era. The heavy masonry walls of the Spanish period became lighter during the twentieth century as evidence in this example. However, the upper floor still derived from the original or classic bahay-na-bato where wood panellings served as the second floor walls. In this case, the ventanillas were decoratively replaced by panels of carved wood.

In this house journalist Teodoro M. Locsin spent his childhood years. The father of the present owners was Dr. Luis S. Gamboa who was founder of Silay Institute, the first high school in the town. He was also among the pioneer physicians of the Puericulture Center of Silay

The Balay Negrense was originally the ancestral house of Victor F. Gaston, a son of Yves Leopold Germain Gaston and Prudencia Fernandez. The elder Gaston is credited as one of the pioneers of sugarcane cultivation in this portion of the Philippine archipelago. A native of Normandy in France, he married a Filipina from Batangas where he initially began experimenting with sugar production before relocating to Negros.

Built in 1897, the house was constructed when Victor Gaston's wife died and during the time when he was residing in his father's hacienda, Hacienda Buen Retiro. The structure housed Victor Gaston and his twelve children from 1901 until his death in 1927. Left unused by the family, the structure was abandoned in the mid-1970s and fell into disrepair until one of the heirs, Msgr. Guillermo Ma. Gaston, together with a group of concerned Negrenses formed what would later become the Negros Cultural Foundation. In 1992, Msgr. Guillermo Ma. Gaston donated the Victor Gaston house to the Philippine Tourism Authority. With donations from prominent individuals and a PhP5,000,000.00 assistance from the Philippine Tourism Authority, the structure was repaired and furnished with period furniture and fixtures. The museum was officially inaugurated on October 6, 1990. Pursuant to Board Resolution No. 1 dated March 8, 1994 of the National Historical Institute of the Philippines, it was listed as a heritage house.

Lizares and Dr. Francisco Kilayko. It was then called ONI Occidental Negros Institute which initially offered only first and second years of high school education. However, the Second World War broke out in December of 1941 that forced the institute to temporarily close.
After the war in 1946, ONI was re-established, this time at Locsin Street in Bacolod City and offered elementary, high school and three college degree programs. It grew with the influx of students from all over the province; hence, it transferred to a bigger venue in Lizares Avenue, where it now stands. It was run by a Board of Trustees with Dr. Antonio Lizares as the first president and Dr. Francisco Kilayko as the Director of the School.
ONI continued to grow and made its mark in the whole province with the quality education it offered; hence on May 15, 1957, it became the University of Negros Occidental, the first University in the whole province. Five years later, on May 25, 1962, it became the University of Negros Occidental-Recoletos as it was passed on to the hands of the Order of Augustinian Recollects with Fr. Federico Terradillos, OAR as the first Rector. The Recollects brought with them a wealth of experience in the field of education. It was their apostolate to provide quality Catholic Christian education to all the youth in the whole province.

Pambansang Dambana ni Heneral Leandro FullonGeneral Leandro Fullon National ShrineRegion VIHamticAntiqueNational Shrine, NHCP, Registered Property, Province of AntiqueOn 14 November 1982, Batas Pambansa 309 was signed and passed into law in commemoration of the late hero’s efforts during the revolution and later during the Filipino-American war. This paved the way for the conversion of the Hamtic Municipal Plaza into the General Fullon National Shrine. In 2004, the remains of Gen. Fullon were transferred to the Hamtic Municipal Plaza from its previous burial site in his family’s mausoleum at La Paz Cemetery, also in Hamtic.

It was inaugurated in 2004, during the centennial death anniversary of the general. The shrine covers the entire former municipal plaza of Hamtic, and at its center is the grave of Gen. Fullon, on top of which is the metal sculpture of the general riding a horse. The monument within the shrine has become a landmark structure, reminding the people of his revolutionary exploits and also his role as a public servant, serving as the first Filipino governor of Antique after it was declared as a province in 1901.

Padre Alejo Ignacio de Molinas, a Spaniard, was its first priest. In 1841, then-parish priest Fr. Eusebio Locsin initiated the construction of a more permanent structure made of stone and wood. The roof was improved through the use of galvanized iron. Further improvements were done but When the revolution broke out in November 5, 1898, the church was left unfinished.

In 1925, work began on a grander structure meant to replace the old church. Don Jose R. Ledesma, a resident of Silay and a wealthy sugar baron, donated a substantial portion of the funds needed to build the new edifice. The rest of the money was raised through popular contribution, including fund-raising by schoolchildren.

Don Jose Ledesma commissioned an Italian architect, Lucio Bernasconi to design the new church. Bernasconi was also responsible for the design and construction of the Silay Wharf, which was razed by Imperial Japanese soldiers during the Second World War. Bernasconi took the churches in his native Italy as the model for the Silay church. The church's layout is in the shape of a Latin cross, with a cupola rising forty meters above the nave. Construction was completed in 1927, and the new church was inaugurated that same year.

Simbahan at Kumbento ng Santa BarbaraParish Church of Santa Barbara and ConventSimbahan kag Kumbento sang Santa Barbara; Santa Barbara ChurchRegion VISanta BarbaraIloiloNational Cultural Treasure, National Museum; National Historical Landmark, NHCPThe Church, of Baroque-Renaissance style, is together with the convento or rectory and other elements of the complex one of the best preserved examples of Spanish colonial church architecture in the province, and is emblematic of the unique, outstanding, and intact quality and historical, cultural and artistic significance of the Augustinian churches of the Western Visayas dating from that period.

The historic Church and Convent of Santa Barbara were constructed in 1849 under Fr. Francis Aguerria, OSA; continued by Fr. Mateo Rodriguez from 1855 to 1873; and, finally finished in 1878 by Fr. Calixto Fernandez. The church shows distinct Baroque-Renaissance architecture of Spanish colonial vintage making it one of the unique concrete examples of the style in Panay. The Church and Convent of Santa Barbara are historically located in the town of Santa Barbara where the "first cry of the Revolution of 1896" was first heard in Panay.

Declared as a National Cultural Treasure by virtue of National Museum Declaration No. 10-2013, and a National Historical Landmark by virtue of National Historical Institute Resolution No. 1, s. 1990

Simbahan ng Birhen ng Guadalupe ng ValladolidParish Church of Our Lady of Guadalupe of ValladolidRegion VIValladolidNegros OccidentalRegistered Property, Province of Negros OccidentalThe church was built in 1852. Local materials such as coral stones were used in its construction. The church is considered as the biggest in the island of Negros at that time. To me, the longest, church in the province. The parish priest, however, decided to build a wall that shortened the church and to fill the seats during mass. The original altar, at the back of that wall, is now a Prayer House.

Nearby, is the meditation house. On the southern part of the church is the new "convento" where the parish priest lives but around it are the ruins of the old walls that were left untouched for century.

When Ma-ao became an independent mission-parish in 1894, the parish of Bago had the barrios of Calumangan, Napoles, Sagasa and Caridad under its parochial administration.
The Recollects arrived to administer the parish of Bago in 1882. Father Manuel Beloso was the first Recollect parish priest assigned in 1882 until 1883. He was succeeded by Ramon Alegria in 1883 and Fr. Vicente Abrego in 1884.Father Juan Bautista Pereda, parish priest from 1884 to 1889, started the construction of the bigger and stronger church in 1886.
Father Leon Ochoa was the last Recollect missionary assigned in 1898. The Revolutionary army of General Juan Araneta captured him along with other Recollect missionaries when the Revolution broke out on November 5, 1898. The absence of the Recollect missionaries favored the conversion of many people to Aglipayan sect in this town.

The Cross of Magellan

From time immemorial this spot has been set aside to commemorate the erection of a Cross in Cebu by the expedition of Magellan, when King Humabon of Cebu and his Queen, son and daughters, together with some 800 of their subjects were baptized by Father Pedro Valderrama. This hallowed site was improved in 1735 by Rev. Juan Albarran, Prior of San Agustin and in 1834 by Rt. Rev. Santos Gomez Marañon, Bishop of Cebu. The image of the Santo Niño found by the expedition of Legaspi in a house near the present site of the Cathedral of Cebu is venerated by the faithful in the nearby Church of San Agustin.

It has been declared the country's 3rd National Geological Monument on June 18, 1988 in recognition of its scientific value and geomorphic uniqueness.
Similar to the formations found in Java, the conical and almost symmetrical and same-sized hills known as the "Chocolate Hills", are more aesthetically extensive. These were the uplift of coral deposits and the result of the action of rainwater and erosion. The hills are located throughout the towns of Carmen, Batuan and Sagbayan and consist of about 1,776 mounds of the same general shape. During the dry season when precipitation in inadequate, the grass-covered hills turn chocolate brown, hence the name in reference to a branded confection. (Source: http://whc.unesco.org/)

Church and Convent of Santo Niño

The Church and Convent erected by the Augustinian Fathers under the Rev. Andres Urdaneta in 1565 were the first established in the Philippines. Both were burned down on November 1, 1566. The second Church was likewise destroyed by fire in March of 1628, but rebuilt soon after (1628–1629) under the administration of the historian Rev. Juan de Medina, O.S.A. The present massive Church was designed and constructed during the Priorship of Rev. Juan Albarran O.S.A., (1735–1737). The Santo Niño, venerated in this Church since the time of Legaspi, is the center of intense devotion and religious pilgrimages through out the Visayas.

Year Unveiled: 1941
____
This Church has always been the Sanctuary of the Santo Niño, under the custody of the Augustinians. The number of priests assigned here ranged fro mthree to five aside from one or two lay brothers. In exceptional cases, there were up to six or seven priests.

The facade, following Classical pattern, is divided into two levels. Shallow pilasters divide each story into three segments. The bell tower serves as counterbalance to the convent located on the opposite far end. A triangular pediment crowns the solid, but not massive, facade. The focus of attention is on the center section. The trefoil arched main entrance is balanced by the side rectangular statued shallow niches. The vertical composition is echoed by the small design on the second level above the cornice, trefoil arch, the pedient and the side scroll-like ornament, a facade within a facade. A double edged triangular pediment crowns the facade. The reactangular shallow niches of the lower level are counterbalanced by semi-circular arched windows of the second. The bell tower has two blind and open windows alternating in shape, ending up in triangular pinnacles with a circular disc crwoned by balusters and a bulbous dome of Muslim influence.

Mga Bantayan ng Bohol: Punta Santa Cruz WatchtowerBohol Watchtowers: Punta Santa Cruz WatchtowerBohol WatchtowersRegion VIIMaribojocBoholNational Cultural Treasure, National MuseumThe Punta Santa Cruz Watchtower in Maribojoc, a triangular-shaped tower which was built as a lookout against marauding pirates in 1796, offers an excellent view of the Bohol Channel and the island of Cebu. The Punta Santa Cruz Watchtower is one of the first stone structures built in Bohol; it looks like an abridged pyramid and with inscriptions over the entrance, Castillo de Nuestro Senor San Vicente y Nuestro Senor Santa Cruz, and Spanish Coat of Arms, on the walls highlighted with reddish earth tint. The triangular plan of Punta Santa Cruz Watchtower topped by hexagonal tower all made of cut coral stones makes it a unique example of Spanish military architecture and serves as a testament to the ingenuity of its builders.

These stone structures played a significant role in the history of Bohol as part of colonial military defense system against Moro raiders during the Spanish Period; these watchtowers endured and survived the wars fought in Bohol during the Philippine-American War and the Second World War.

Declared as a National Cultural Treasure by virtue of National Museum Declaration No. 11-2011

From a distance, the overall symmetrical composition would seem to indicate a neo-classic pedigree, an architectural image set by William Parsons for capitol complexes in the Philippines, but upon closer inspection, the simplified, pediment, and friezes reveal art deco aesthetic.
The Provincial Capitol represented the interaction of classically balanced masses with emphasis on symmetry and horizontality as demonstrated by its inward-curving facade that supported a dome raised on ac octagonal base, which tends to dissimulate the flat art deco ornaments.

Blood Compact Between Sikatuna and Legaspi

About the middle of March 1565, Captain General Miguel Lopez de Legaspi’s fleet anchored along this shore. Shortly thereafter, Legaspi manifesting trust and confidence in the islanders, entered into a blood compact with Datu Sikatuna for the purpose of insuring friendly relations between the Spaniards and the natives. A few drops of blood drawn from a small incision in the arm of each of the two chiefs were placed in separate cups containing wine, and in the presence of the followers of both, each chief drank the potion containing the blood of the other. Thus, during this period of colonization, a bond was sealed in accordance with native practice, the first treaty of friendship and alliance between Spaniards and Filipinos.

The location in front of a deep gully provides it a natural fortification is a defensive device not usually seen in Philippine Architecture. The construction of churches on this site spans more than two centuries, with the present church built from 1852 to 1872 replacing an earlier one built about 1798-1816.

The exterior walls exhibit traces of a reddish tint over decorative features such as window frames and bas-reliefs of images, a rare glimpse of Spanish colonial period coloring techniques. The tall arched windows of the church piercing the thick coral-stone walls give ample interior light, demonstrating an innovative adaption to the tropical environment. The components of the church are aesthetically significant for their craftsmanship, mode, technical excellence, exquisiteness, expression of skill and quality for design and execution.

The composition of said retablos is a mixture of Neogothic, Mudejar, and other styles, incorporating local motifs such as a woman in baro't saya. The ceiling, commissioned in the 1920s by Most Reverend Juan Gorordo, the first Filipino bishop of Cebu, was painted by Ray Francia, one of the most important painters of Cebu in the 1920s-1930s. The huge clock acquired from the Altonaga company in Manila installed on the church belfry on 15 October 1893, is one of the rare extant examples of that clock company.

In this church lie the remains of three (3) Augustinian Recollect friars, namely Frs. Bartolome de Sta. Ana, Mauro de San Agustin, and Manuel Plaza, who supervised the church construction. Under the authority of the Bishop of Tagbilaran, the Parish established a museum in November 1995 to house its extensive and highly significant collection of historic religious art and memorabilia. The complex of the Parish Church of the Holy Cross in Maribojoc, Bohol, with its church, retablos and other interior furnishings, bell-tower, convent, museum, exterior stairway at the back, and side plazas, has one of the highest levels of authenticity in Bohol, and indeed in the country.

This priceless church heritage is historically significant for its association with religious and political events, and objects of daily life used by the ordinary people which are the foundation of the Filipino culture. Its buildings, spaces, and layout represent one of the highest points in 19th century church site development in the country.

Declared as a National Cultural Treasure by virtue of National Museum Declaration No. 2-2010

This ecclesiastical edifice was consecrated in liturgical rites by Bishop Juan Gorordo of Cebu on 23 August 1923.

Architecturally, the present Dauis Church is one of the more sophisticated and complex structures of its kind in Bohol. Constructed in the gothic style, Saldaña's masterpiece is the subject of a harmonious interlocking of different artistic types and historical periods. The tower and the lower half of the church fabric are the remnants of the gothic plan, while its painted ceiling exhibits the illusion of a renaissance artesonado or coffered ceiling. Also, the folky baroque transept retablos which feature 18th- century twisted columns have niches above which are planned according to neoclassic lines. The Grecian temple-façade that was added by Fr. Natalio del Mar in the 1920's and completed by Boholano secular priest Fr. Quiterio Sarigumba in 1926 exhibits an ornamental neoclassic design.

Aesthetically, the church possesses a unique style of ceiling painting and follows a distinct iconographic programme. While other Bohol churches prefer religious scenes as subjects on ceiling paintings, Dauis Church opted for the coffered ceiling, and the paintings only become representational in the areas covered in the transept, cupola, and sanctuary where scenes in the life of the Blessed Virgin Mary and Jesus are featured.

Militarily, the entire cultural property has a squat hexagonal tower built as a lookout against moro piratical raiders from Mindanao, built sometimes in 1774 during the term of the Augustinian Recollect missionary Fray Santiago del Corazon del Jesus. The plaza fronting the apse of the church is bordered by a low wall surmised to be part of the fortification erected by the Jesuits. Fronting the sea at the back of the casa parroquial is a bulwark-like structure that adds to the fortification of the site.

Archaeologically, the church complex has a great potential for archaeological/scientific research significance because of the presence of ruins that might shed light on the early historic period of Bohol province.

Religiously and socially, the church has been the venue of local and foreign pilgrims seeking divine favours from God through the intercession of the Blessed Virgin Mary. By oral tradition, a well sprang out at the foot of the sanctuary while the populace was inside the safety of the church during one of the intermittent pirate raids. While the fresh water from the well is said to be miraculous, personal testimonies abound as to its efficacy. This brought in pilgrims to Dauis Church that on 15 August 2004. Most Rev. Leopoldo S. Tumulak, then Bishop of Tagbilaran, declared it a diocesan shrine, fittingly on the day commemorating the Solemnity of the Bodily Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary, and on the year marking the 150th anniversary of the proclamation of the dogma of the Immaculate Conception of the Blessed Virgin Mary.

The parish church complex and diocesan shrine dedicated to the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary has all the elements of an ideal church plan: bell tower, a patio or plaza, a casa parroquial. fortifications, bulwarks, morada, and a watchtower - all these are perfectly set on a strip of land on the shore of Panglao Island opposite Tagbilaran, on virtually a seascape overlooking the mainland to its northeast, the verdant Mayacabaç Hill to its southwest, and ancient trees and archaeological site to its east section, providing a resonant rhythm of built structures and open spaces.

Declared as a National Cultural Treasure by virtue of National Museum Declaration No. 12-2011 and a National Historical Landmark by virtue of National Historical Institute Resolution No. 3, s. 2009

The Church of Dalaguete is located in the town proper where it overlooks the beautiful blue waters of the adjacent sea and the spacious lawn with its leafy shrubs and shady trees. The church is located in the midst of a complex which contains the convent, church and cemetery. The remains of an ossuary whuch must have belonged to the old cemetery in the complex can still be found at the left side of the church.

Above the main portal is the choir loft area which has two arched windows and a small niche for the town’s patron saint at the center.

At the center of this pediment is a small orifice, perhaps for ventilation, and small niche again for saint. The saints niche are meticulously carved in stone.
The belltower of the church is standing to its left side. It is polygonal and made up of three tiers. Arched windows fill up the sides of the tiers.
Entrance to the church is also made possible through the auxiliary entrances at the sides and transept areas. The side entrances are beautifully marked by a triangular pediment in relief and side pilasters that come out significantly with their foliated designs and motifs. Even the pediment or transcom area of the side entrances are infused with floral embellishments bringing to force the artistic talent and creativity of the artisians and craftsmen who built this church.
The church is cruciform in plan and has a vaulted ceiling. It has five altars executed un the Baroque style. There are four ½ side altars dedicated to the Sacred Heart, Our Lady of Lourdes, the Mater Dolorosa and the Santo Sepulcro. The interior is paved with black and white tiles.

El Gran BaluarteEl Gran BaluarteDakong Balay; Baluarte or KampanaryoRegion VIIBoljoonCebuRegistered Property, Municipality of Boljoon, CebuEl Grand Baluarte is just one of the seven watch towers and the largest one built by Fray Julian Bermejo in 1808. It is the main fortress on the church complex’s fortification during Spanish colonial period. During the height of the Moro raids, the structure served as Fray Bermejo’s command center in his elaborated defense on the Visayas seas in order to prepare his men for the ironic battle and protect the residents from these incursions. The ground level served as store room for the weapons and ammunition and held a prison cell with preserved painted murals by the prisoners. It became fitting headquarters to Fr. Bermejo, the warrior priest who made sure that the South was well-protected, because these towns were subjected to attacks by Moro raiders. Fr. Julian Bermejo set up a series of watch towers to monitor the presence of raiders and give the townspeople enough warning before the attacks. Now the people found a shelter and refuge in this and within the church complex.
El Gran Baluarte is used as a meeting place, lunch area and a reception hall of ASBOMATU (Asosasyon sa mga Boljo-anong Mamumuo sa Turismo). It is also included in their BYGONE tour package.
El Gran Baluarte is even used to remind local inhabitants for religious activities such as mass, weddings, baptism and funerals.
El Gran Baluarte is an example of a blockhouse which is made up of coral stones. This quadrangular structure is the largest extant watch tower in the Philippines built by Fr. Julian Bermejo, OSA in 1808 served as a command center before but now converted into a bell tower because of the four bells hanging on its windows.
El Gran Baluarte is the largest extant watch tower in Cebu. It is a main fortress on the church complex’s fortification played a crucial role on the defense system of fortresses to deter Moro raids, and protect the residences from these incursions.

Ampiteatro ng Balyu-anBalyu-an AmpitheaterRegion VIIITacloban CityHighly Urbanized CItyRegistered Property, Tacloban CityThe Balyu-an Ampitheater is located along the shore of Cancabato Bay. It is often the venue of cultural, musical, social, and religious events. Also, this is where the annual Balyu-an rites is held.
HISTORY
The amphitheater derived its name from the local Waraynon dialect, “Balyu-an,” which means “a place for trade.” Before the amphitheater was built, there used to be a Balyu-an Tower overlooking the Cancabato Bay. Unfortunately, the tower rusted and was eventually destroyed. Years later, this historic site was constructed and became one of Tacloban’s most prominent landmarks.
SIGNIFICANCE
The Balyu-an Ampitheater serves a religious and historical significance to Tacloban City. When the city was still under the governance of Basey, Samar, the city folks would borrow the image of Sr. Sto. Niño during it’s feast day and was brought to the Balyu-an port. The Sangyaw Festival which is celebrated every 29th of June, culminayes such rites in this historic place.

The City Government commemorate this event every November 8 to pay tribute to the victims of Yolanda and to remind all Taclobanons to respect our environment and be more serious in taking positive steps to make our surroundings pollution-free.

Kuratsa ng WarayWaray KuratsaRegion VIIISamarPhilippine Intangible Cultural Heritage InventoryKuratsa is the most popular Waray traditional dance in Eastern Visayas. C. Audin and B.E.S Villaruz (1994) wrote that it is “an indigenized version of the la cucaracha (the cockroach), a Mexican courtship dance… believed to have been introduced by Mexican soldiers and traders when Mexico had administrative and trade relations with the Philippines”. A close study of the dance, however, reveals that it does not exhibit any trace of the pesky roach nor of the impassioned Mexican in movement, style or rhythm. Waray folks mention nothing about a foreign origin. They say that the kuratsa depict the flirtation movements of the rooster and the hen in courtship.

Once upon a time, there lived a farmer and his wife. One day, after his work, he went fishing together with his dog. But it was already late in the afternoon and his wife got mad for he was not home yet. After some time, the dog went back to their house alone. To her anger, she asked the dog if where is his master and their catch for the day. She tried to ask the dog three times but the pet did not reply. She then got some wood and began hitting the dog for not answering her queries. To her surprise the dog answered, "We had caught lots of fishes." Suddenly, their house began to tremble and momentarily collapsed to the ground. Just then her husband arrived with his catch. He saw his wife running away from the strong current of water from the cracks of the soil where she stood. He called her but she continued running that he also run after her to avoid the strong current of water. They kept running and running to save their lives from the flowing water that is after them but it soon rendered them exhausted and got drown along the way to each other. They died together before reaching a safe ground. The water then stopped and it formed into a lake. Thus, the name "INAPASAN LAKE". It is customary that if one plans for a fishing activity in the lake, total silence should be observed and the first catch should be returned to the water as a sign of offering.
Pitong BusayRegion VICuarteroCapizRegistered Property, Municipality of Cuartero, Capiz"Pitong Busay" has 7 falls (5 mini falls and two average falls).

It therefore increased the production of farmers. It is also a source of freshwater catch like carp, bagtis, batud and pantat as well as the famous agihis (clam) sa pangawitao.

The Pangawitao Creek, especially its lower portion, is believed to be enchanted as it is the home port of the famous M/V Cuartero, the mythical golden ship of the town that navigates the whole world. Locals believe that each time the golden ship passes the bridge, an accident happens. It is therefore customary for the local motorists to blow their horns while approaching the area to avoid any untoward incident. The centuries old acacia trees on its banks are believed to be the mansions of the fairies, that one time, a peddler offered his goods for credit to a lady from the house and was told to be back for collection on the next month. When he returned to the area, he was surprised to see none on the houses he traded his fare before. After asking around the locals on the houses' whereabouts, he was told that the place is enchanted and that he might have traded with a "Taglugar". With that confirmation, he just shrugged off and continued his business to the neighboring barangays. When the time came for him to buy wholesale goods in Manila, he accidentally met the lady who got his merchandise in Pangawitao, and to his surprise, had paid him the total amount due for collection. After saying his thanks, he bid her farewell and avoided asking any question as he remembered her nature.

It is the only link of the people to its first ever parish church which was constructed last 1879 and completed on the year 1890 when barrio Cuartero was recognized as a parish by the Diocese of Jaro. His Excellency Msgr. Mariano Cuartero, then Bishop of Jaro, officiated the first mass. In his honor and memory, the name Cuartero was given to this place up to the present time. The belfry gave protection to those who sought refuge during the war considering the thickness of its wall. However, a high intensity earthquake in 1947 toppled the topmost portion and reduced it to its height today. It was built through Polo y Servicio system, where Filipinos at aged 7-60 were forced to render labor service to the Spaniards without pay. "

PasungayRehiyon VISan JoaquinIloiloLocal Cultural Property (by virtue of Municipal Ordinance No. 2023-1); Registered Property, Municipality of San Joaquin, IloiloIto ay isang maipagmamalaking buhay na tradisyon na kung saan ipinamamalas ng bawat magsasaka ang pagiging isang San Joaquinhon na higit pang pinagyayaman ang lupang ipinagkaloob ng Maykapal sa bayan. Ang Pasungay ay ipinagdiriwang tuwing Fiesta ng San Joaquin sa buwan ng Enero. Ayon sa mga matatanda, nagsimula ito noong kusang natanggal sa kanilang mga tali ang mga hayop kaya nagkasagupaan. Naging kaugalian daw na itapat ang mga hayop sa isa’t isa upang malaman kung alin sa kanila nag pinakamalakas at matapang. Sa paningin ng ibang tao, ito ay ginaganap upang maipamalas ang katatagan at kakisigan ng mga hayop na kalahok. Ngunit malalim ang kaugnayan ng Pasungay sa buhay at pagkatao ng mga San Joaquinhon. Ang sagupaan ng mga hayop ay syang nagsasalamin ng mga katangian ng mga nangangalaga at sa “maaram” na kumakatawan o nananalangin sa mga hayop bago ito makipagbuno ng lakas sa kapwa hayop, gaya ng kalabaw sa kapwa kalabaw; ang baka sa kapwa baka.

Bago pumasok sa lugar ng Pasungay ang mga baka at kalabaw, dumadaan sila sa harap ni San Pedro Regalado kung saan sila lumuluhod at binabasbasan. Si San Pedro Regalado ay patron ng pakikipaglaban sa Toro sa Espanya. Ang poon ay matatagpuan sa isang angkop na lugar sa kaliwang bahagi sa harap ng simbahan na siyang daanan ng mga pumapasok sa lugar. Nakaugalian ng San Joaquinhon ang pagsamba muna sa patron bago sila pumasok sa lugar ng Pasungay.

Habang nagpapambuno sa kanilang taglay na lakas ng dalawang hayop, ang kanilang mga tagapag-alaga ay nakaalalaysa kanila sa pamamagitan ng pag-aantabay habang ang dalawang kalabaw ay nagsusukatan ng kanilang lakas.

May iba pang mga kalalakihan na nagbabantay sa laban ng dalawang hayop, sila ang nagsisilbing taga pamagitan at gumagabay sa mga hayop habang naglalaban. Ang paraan ng laban ay sa pamamraan ng kanilang mga sungay at lakas ng katawan. Habang naglalaban ng kanilang lakas, ang kalabaw na makaramdam ng sakit o masaktan ay tatalikod at tatakbo ng kusa. Sinuman ang tatalikod at tatakbo ay syang talunan.

Sa labanang ito, walang hayop ang namamatay o sinasaktan ng tao. Ito ang isang pagdiriwang na nagbibigay pugay sa galling ng mga kalabaw at pangangalaga na ibinibigay ng nagmamay-ari sa kanyang kalabaw. Ang labanang Pasungay ay isang yamang tradisyon na nagpapakita ng pagiging isang agrikulturang pamayanan ng San Joaquin. Itong Pasungay ay sumisimbolo ng kapangyarihan, katatagan, kalakasan, at pagasa sa bawat San Joaquinhon na sa anumang pagsubok, nariyan ang gabay ng Diyos sa pamamagitan ng mga kalabaw sa pagbubungkal ng yamang lupa ng bayan.

Declared as an Important Intangible Cultural Heritage by virtue of Municipal Ordinance No. 2023-1, "An Ordinance Declaring Pasungay as an Important Intangible Cultural Heritage of the Municipality of San Joaquin, Province of Iloilo, providing Rules and Guidelines for its Conduct, and Appropriating Funds for the same."
