The History Treasure of the Philippines

Maybe for some Filipinos who do not want to know the story of our historical place or some history of our national heroes. But in majority it is a valuable thing to keep in mind because it is the reason why we are free to the conquerors. I do not mean to forget everything that happened at the end of all, I just say we should appreciate and protect what they have left us because it will be the mark for our country.

I will share my experiences and my friends with you about our travels to the few destinations we've been to on August 30, 2017.

We are from Rizal Park, also known as Luneta Park or simply Luneta, is a historical urban park in the Philippines. Located along Roxas Boulevard, Manila, adjacent to the old walled city of Intramuros,

It's nice to go to the Rizal Park with your friends together especially when you are with your family and cheerfully eat together on the grass with strips.

The happiest thing that happened while we were in the middle of the meal was that the rain came down suddenly and we did not know where we were going because almost of our food was laid.

And beautiful pictures with your “Kalog” friends

Then we travel from Rizal Park via E- Motorbike to Fort Santiago

Then you need to pay for only 100 pesos for entrance and 50 pesos for student

Take note if you are a student you must bring your school I.D. to prove that you are a student.

Fort Santiago

Fort Santiago is a citadel first built by Spanish conquistador, Miguel Lopez e Legazpi for the new established city of Manila in the Philippines. The defense fortress is part of the structures of the walled city of Manila referred to as Intramuros.

And as you see behind me there is a large wall on which to see the fore or the main entrance of Fort Santiago.

At in the main entrance you'll notice the footsteps, the last traces of Dr. Rizal's footsteps. 

We trace the footstep of Rizal then we notice at the centre of the place the statue of Rizal that handle a book and we continue tracing the footsteps.

And finally we find out where the traces start, and we see Rizal standing there.

After that we go to the Rizal Shrine then we see the statue of a big white cross not too far in the first step of Rizal.

Then we head straight to the Rizal shrine where we can see the works of rizal and other things.

Rizal Shrine

The Rizal Shrine is a reproduction of the original two-story, Spanish-Colonial style house in Calamba, Laguna where Jose Rizal was born on June 19, 1861.
