I first thought that it was boring to have a visit for this kind of places but after we go through this places I realized that visiting sometimes historical places can remind us of how much important history are.

 

Malolos Cathedral

 
Malolos Cathedral is our first destination. We travel from Meycauayan to Malolos and it took us almost one hour to go there.




 Here are some picture of the door of Malolos Cathedral if you look closely from it. You will see some sculpture on it. I am amazed when i see these intricate sculptures. If you see also the text in the top of the door, "katedral at basilica minore ng inmaculada concepcion" it is the spanish translation of Malolos Cathedral.


One of the reason I think that make the Malolos Cathedral famous and historical is because the first President Emilio Aguinaldo of Philippine Republic held the office here.


This kalayaan tree also one of the thing that amazed me. This is a historical tree that witness many historic events of the Philippines. It is found outside the Malolos Cathedral.




 Inside the Cathedral you can see these stained glass and other saints.


 Casa Real



"Casa Real de Malolos", built in 1580, it originally served as the seat of government of the town. It also became the town’s Casa Tribunal, Ayuntamiento, and Casa Presidencia Municipal. It served as the office of the Treasury and the office of the town’s gobernadorcillo during the Spanish period. It served as the national printing press of the First Republic, where the revolutionary organs La Independencia, El Heraldo de la Revolucion, Kalayaan and Kaibigan ng Bayan were printed.













Inside the Casa Real, you can find here the first printing machine used by the first Philippine Republic where the revolutionary papers are printed. You can also find here the flags, the evolution of the Philippine flag before the flag we have today. Also the picture of the persons that contributes in our own history.

Bautista Mansion

Our last destination, it is situated along the nostalgic Kamistisuhan Street, this ancestral mansion was visited by the national hero Dr. Jose Rizal to convince Triumvirate of the Ten Gentlemen of Malolos to join the La Liga Filipina. Sad to say, it is the only picture we have taken, we are not able to visit inside this place because the fee cost so much to us.


Lastly, I want to say
be with you :D

Thank you for visiting! Until next time :) Godbless!
