Basilica del Sto. Niño in Cebu, Philippines

Basilica del Sto. Niño in Cebu, Philippines is one of the historical sights in Cebu City. The start of the construction of this site is believed to be in 1566 where the image of the Holy Child was found and was destroyed by fire. It was said to be built by Fr. Diego de Herrera using wood and nipa. I have been to this place for a lot of times already. The bank where I worked before in Cebu City is just some meters from this cathedral. please keep reading below for more information about this historical building.
The convent of the Sto. Niño de Cebu was founded by Fr. Andres de Urdaneta on April 28, 1565 , the very day the Legazpi-Urdaneta expedition arrived in the island. On May 8 of the same year, when Legaspi and his men planned the urbanization of the city, they allotted a “place for the church and the convent of San Agustin, “where the Santo Niño image had been found.”

In 1599, the convent was made a house of studies of grammar, headed by the Visayan linguist, Fr. Alonso de Mentrida. It also served as a rest house for missionaries working in the province and as a retirement home for the aged and the sick, usually attended to by a lay brother.

The church has always been the Sanctuary of the Sto. Niño, under the custody of the Augustinians. The number of priests assigned to the church varied from three to five aside from one or two lay brothers.

I was once in this marvelous and magnificent capital city of Austria called Vienna. I love this city and I hope to be back there next time. To always see memories from my travel, I always see to it that I always have photos from it. Below are my pictures from Vienna, Austria during my 2007 visit. I’ll see you later guys.

Vienna (in German Wien pronounced /viːn/; /viˈɛnʌ/ English; see also other names) is the capital of Austria, and also one of the nine districts of Austria. Vienna is Austria’s primary city; with a population of about 1.8 million [1] (2.1 million within the metropolitan area), it is by far the largest city in Austria as well as its cultural, economical and political center. It is the 10th largest city by population in the European Union and is identified having the 3rd highest quality of living. The United Nations has offices there as has OPEC. The Vienna International Centre near the Danube also hosts important international offices including the International Atomic Energy Agency. Vienna lies in the very east of Austria and is close to the Czech Republic, Slovakia and Hungary. In 2001, the city centre was designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site[2] and an Economist Intelligence Unit study of 127 world cities ranked it first ex aequo with Vancouver for the quality of life.

 

Sis Got A Problem

I remember our dear youngest sister who was complaining about her skin problem. I believed most young girls and women will take it seriously especially when there are some pimples and worst some acne that are growing on their face. My sister is still trying to find a good acne solution in the United States right now. I hope that her acne will be treated soon. Pity to you dear sister. Take care there and we are all missing you. I hope to see you soon again in your special day!

1087 Post

Hey guys! I am finally online again after my last visit since Saturday when I was in Manila. I have a lot of things to share but the internet connection here in Cebu Province is very slow. One thing I want to impart is the Sinulog festival which we attended last Sunday. I also want to let you know that this is my 1087 post in this blog. I guess that for this post I want to read about quick trim extreme burn reviews. I am quite disappointed because I gained more weight again. I guess I am having a big problem to solve right now. Photos to come from the Sinulog in a couple of days. Happy Wednesday!
