Manila Chinatown

Taken in front of the Sta. Cruz Church during the Chinese New Year 2013. I sure hope that local government officials refrain from hanging large tarpaulins that are eyesores.

This is the archway towards Ongpin Street.

Tourists at Carriedo Fountain

These tourists are enjoying their lunch at the Carriedo Fountain in front of the Sta. Cruz Church, Quiapo district. I sure hope we’ll see more tourist visiting the country. I sure hope that cleanliness and security will be a top priority in Manila and other key cities in the country.

Renovation of Sta. Cruz Church Façade

IMG_0787

I’m against the renovation of a church’s façade like what was done to the Sta. Cruz Church in Quiapo. I hope the Kura Paroko (Parish Priests) of churches here in Metro Manila would undergo seminar on church design preservation from the priests in Ilocos Region.

Taken last February 9, 2013 during the Chinese New Year 2013 celebration.
