Basilica minore di San Sebastian

La basilica minore di San Sebastian (in filippino: Basilika Menor ng San Sebastian; in spagnolo: Basílica Menor de San Sebastián), anche conosciuta come chiesa di San Sebastian (in filippino: Simbahan ng San Sebastian) o basilica di San Sebastian, è una basilica minore cattolica a Manila, nelle Filippine. È la chiesa della parrocchia di San Sebastian ed è situata nell'antico quartiere di Quiapo, uno dei quartieri centrali e storici della città. Completata nel 1891, la chiesa di San Sebastian è un esempio di architettura neogotica nelle Filippine, è anche l'unica chiesa nelle Filippine con struttura portante in acciaio. In virtù di queste particolarità nel 2006 venne candidata per l'inclusione nella lista dei patrimoni dell'umanità, la candidatura venne ritirata nel 2015 a causa del decadimento strutturale dell'edificio. È stata dichiarata monumento nazionale delle Filippine nel 1973. Storia Nel 1621 Bernardino Castillo, un filantropo devoto a San Sebastiano, donò il terreno su cui venne edificato il primo edificio religioso, una struttura in legno che andò a fuoco nel 1651, le successive strutture in pietra vennero distrutte dai terremoti del 1859, 1863 e del 1880. Dal 1887 al 1891 si procedette alla costruzione di un edificio in acciaio, nel giugno del 1890, ancora in corso di costruzione la chiesa venne elevata al rango di basilica minore, la consacrazione ebbe luogo il 15 agosto del 1891. Gli elementi prefabbricati in acciaio vennero prodotti in Belgio dalla Societe Anonyme des Enterprises de Travaux Publiques e trasportati via nave da Bruxelles a Manila, il progetto della chiesa è dell'architetto spagnolo Genero Palacio. La chiesa e l'adiacente San Sebastian College sono di proprietà dell'Ordine degli agostiniani recolletti.

Basilica Minore de San Sebastian

De Basilica Minore de San Sebastian, (ook wel: San Sebastian Church) is een Rooms-Katholieke basilica minor in de Filipijnse hoofdstad Manilla. De kerk werd in 1891 tot basiliek verheven en is gebouwd in neogotische stijl. Bijzonder aan dit gebouw is bovendien dat het een geheel stalen constructie is. De Basilica Minore de San Sebastian is de enige stalen kerk in Azië. Het gebouw werd in 1973 aangewezen als National Historic Landmark en in 2011 als National Cultural Treasure. De stalen constructie werd vervaardigd in een staalfabriek in het Belgische Binche volgens plannen van de Spaanse architect Genaro Palacios y Guerra die de vraag kreeg om een brand- en aardbevingsvrije kerk te ontwerpen. De onderdelen werden als prefabpakket per schip naar de Filipijnen vervoerd. De kerk werd op die manier gebouwd omdat die uit 1651 door brand werd verwoest en andere uit 1859, 1863 en 1880 door aardbevingen. 1527 ton staal in acht schepen werd getransporteerd van België naar de Filipijnen, de eerste lading in 1888. Twee Belgische ingenieurs controleerden de assemblage die drie jaar tijd in beslag nam. Een negende schip met retabels en altaren uit België verloor zijn lading in een storm. Nieuwe houten Filipijnse altaren vervingen ze. Bronnen en referenties

Antonio Bautista Air Base

Antonio Bautista Air Base (IATA: PPS, ICAO: RPVP) is a military airbase of the Philippine Air Force (PAF), located in Puerto Princesa, Palawan, Philippines. The base shares the single 2,600 metres (8,530 feet) long runway with Puerto Princesa International Airport. The PAF base was named as an honour to Colonel Antonio Bautista, who was killed in action on 11 January 1974 as a F-86 Sabre pilot while engaged in a close air support (CAS) mission against Muslim rebels. World War II On 14 December 1944, occupying Japanese soldiers herded 150 American POWs who were building the airstrip on Palawan Island (today's Puerto Princesa International Airport and Antonio Bautista Air Base) into air raid trenches, doused them with gasoline, set them afire, then machine-gunned and bayoneted them to death. Among them was Army Capt. Fred Bruni the Palawan POWs' senior officer, who was from Janesville, Wisconsin, with the 192nd Tank Battalion. Only eleven men escaped the 'Palawan Massacre', to be rescued by guerrillas. The story of their ordeal persuaded General Douglas MacArthur that the rumoured order for the retreating Japanese to "kill all" prisoners was being implemented, thus his rush to liberate the Philippines. US Army Air Forces units based here included: Headquarters, XIII Fighter Command (1 March 1945 to November 1945) 42d Bombardment Group (March 1945 to January 1946) 347th Fighter Group (6 March to December 1945) 419th Night Fighter Squadron (6 March 1945 to 10 January 1946) 550th Night Fighter Squadron (Det) (9 to 19 June 1945) Current use The airbase is currently used as a jump off point to supply the soldiers stationed in the municipality of Kalayaan as well as soldiers in the BRP Sierra Madre. Future development Antonio Bautista Air Base is one of the nine airbases nominated for the priority development programmes of the Philippine Air Force (PAF). The PAF planned to construct two additional hangars to store relief supplies and accommodate additional air assets, including long-range patrol aircraft and two PZL W-3 Sokol helicopters to be stationed there in the future. On 18 March 2016, the United States and the Philippines signed a deal to allow US forces to use five bases in the country as a counter to the Chinese deployments in the Spratly Islands, including Antonio Bautista Air Base. A new Humanitarian Assistance and Disaster Relief warehouse is expected to be built at the airbase. References
Nuestra Señora de Candelaria Parish Church (Mabitac)

The Nuestra Señora de Candelaria Parish Church, informally known as Mabitac Church, is a Roman Catholic church located above Calvary or Kalbaryo Hill in Mabitac, Laguna, Philippines. It is under the jurisdiction of the Diocese of San Pablo. Its church is known for having a staircase of 126 steps, a panoramic view of the town of Sta. Maria and Laguna de Bay, and the festivity of the Three Kings every January 6, a re-enactment of the Magi's journey. History Mabitac was under the patronage of Nuestra Señora de Candelaria or the Our Lady of Candles. The image of Nuestra Señora de Candelaria was commissioned between 1599 and 1600 by the alferez, Don Cristobal Mercado for Paco Church. After three years, in 1603, it was first brought to a hospital-chapel in Los Baños. It was transferred to Siniloan in 1615 upon the request of Father Juan Miguel de Talavera to his superior, Father Blas de la Madre de Dios. His plan was to place it on a little mount between Inaguasan and Galoy, two barrios of Siniloan, in aid of unification around his place. The people of Mabitac sought the image to be placed in Mabitac and was enthroned to their town in that same year. The first church of Mabitac was the aforementioned church between the two barrios of Siniloan. Due to flooding, the Franciscans transferred the church on top of Calvary or Kalbaryo Hill in 1618 and made it out of stone. Originally, the church only had 96 steps but further improvements increased it to more than 120 steps. It was seriously damaged during the 1880 earthquake and repaired under the supervision of Father Antonio de la Fuente and again severely damaged during the 1937 earthquake. Features The church is known for its 126 steps connecting the local road to the main church on top of the hill. It has a Spanish style façade. Due to natural calamities and war, only the belfry connected to the church is the remaining original structure of the original 1618 church.

Lakawon

Lakawon, also called Llacaon, is a 13-hectare (32-acre), banana-shaped island off the coast of Cadiz in the northern portion of Negros Occidental, a province in Western Visayas of the Philippines. A white sand beach resort on the island, a family-run business, is a popular destination for both local and foreign tourists. Etymology The term Lakawon is derived from a Cebuano word lakaw, meaning "to walk". The island may have gotten its name because during low tide, one has to literally walk or wade a long distance to or from the main island. Features Lakawon is 48 kilometres (30 mi) north of Bacolod, the provincial capital. The island is accessible from the coast of Barangay Cadiz Viejo via a 20-minute boat ride. Lakawon's white sand beach is claimed to rival that of Boracay, a popular island resort off the coast of Aklan in Panay. In stark contrast to its more famous counterpart, however, Lakawon has a smaller influx of tourists, and the island is not commercially developed. The island is more akin to a sandbar. The white sand beaches are largely on the part of the island facing the island of Negros. The opposite portion, facing the open sea, is more rugged. There is a small fishing village on one side of the island. The inhabitants there earn their living from harvesting the sea's bounty. As a destination Cadiz Viejo, which is the nearest mainland point to the island, may be accessed via private or public transportation. From Bacolod City, or any point of Negros, jeepney drivers are available for hire. One may also take Ceres Liner buses from any of the cities and municipalities in the province. From the national highway in Cadiz Viejo, a dirt road leads to the shore. The island is visible from here and parking space is available. The ride to the island by motorized banca takes about 20 minutes. It is best to arrive in the morning during high tide–the waters will be calmer and there will be less wading required to get to the boat. Typhoon Haiyan Residents of Lakawon Island in Cadiz said that of the ~280 houses in the island, only about 10 were left intact after Typhoon Haiyan (named Yolanda in the Philippines) hit in November 2013.

Malagonlong Bridge

The Malagonlong Bridge (Spanish: Puente de Malagonlong) and (Filipino: Tulay ng Malagonlong) is a five-span 445 ft (136 m) long stone arch bridge built during the Spanish colonial period in Tayabas, Quezon, Philippines. The bridge is known as one of the oldest bridges as well as the longest bridge made during the Spanish era. It was declared a National Cultural Treasure under the Historic Bridges of Tayabas on August 12, 2011. Location The Malagonlong Bridge crosses the Dumacaa River and connects Barangay Mateuna and Lakawan to the eastern side of Tayabas, as well as the municipalities of Mauban and Pagbilao. It carried the old segment of Tayabas–Mauban Road. Description The stone arch bridge has a total length of 445 ft (136 m). The first arch has both height and width of 36 ft (11 m); the second arch also has a height and width of 33 ft (10 m); the fourth arch has a width of 30 ft (9.1 m) and the fifth arch has a width of 18 ft (5.5 m). The bridge has a carriageway of about 6 m (20 ft) and six small balconies where pedestrians can stop by. It became a bridge for tourists rather than for vehicular traffic after a new bridge was built parallel to it in 2004. It is currently owned and managed by the local government unit of Tayabas. History The bridge was built between the years 1840 and 1850 under the direction of the Fray Antonio Mateos, a Franciscan priest who served as the Ministro del Pueblo of Tayabas. In an account of a Spanish traveler Juan Alvarez Guerra, the bridge was built in 1841 under Gobernadorcillo Don Joaquin Ortega's term. The bridge was made by the people of Tayabas through forced labor. It is estimated that 100,000 adobe blocks was used to build the bridge. An inscription on the bridge indicates that it was inaugurated in 1850 under the term of Gobernadorcillo Don Julian S. Francisco. According to historical records, Filipino locals built the bridge for 10 years instead of paying taxes to the Spanish colonial government. The bridge was closed in 2004 with the construction of a new concrete bridge running parallel to it. The bridge was declared by the National Historical Institute (now National Historical Commission of the Philippines) as a marked historical structure by placing a historical marker. In 2010, the local government of the municipality of Tayabas declared the eleven historical bridges of Tayabas, including Malagonlong Bridge, a historical bridge for protection purposes.

Cimitero sotterraneo di Nagcarlan

Il cimitero sotterraneo di Nagcarlan (filippino: Libingan sa Ilalim ng Lupa ng Nagcarlan; inglese: Nagcarlan Underground Cemetery) è un antico luogo pubblico di sepoltura di tipo catacombale situato nelle Filippine presso la cittadina di Nagcarlan, nella provincia di Laguna, a circa 100 chilometri a sud-sud-est della capitale Manila. Fu voluto e costruito nel 1845 dal frate francescano Vicente Velloc che disegnò è seguì anche la costruzione della sovrastante chiesa del Cristo Re. Oggi il cimitero sotterraneo di Nagcarlan è monumento storico nazionale delle Filippine, con decreto presidenziale del 1973 firmato dall'allora presidente Marcos. e non accetta nuove sepolture. Il cimitero e la chiesa sovrastante sono uno squisito esempio di architettura coloniale spagnola che si sviluppa su una area di forma ottagonale racchiusa da un muro di cinta di mattoni diviso in due semi-ali circolari e interrotto da cancellate in ferro battuto e decorato in modo da conferire l'aspetto di drappi e tendaggi funebri. L'ingresso è costituito da un grande cancello ad arco che porta alla cappella centrale ricavata nel muro di cinta e dalla quale si dipartono due semi-ali laterali in cui sono ricavati i 240 loculi a nicchia della parte superiore del cimitero. Sotto alla cappella, e raggiungibile scendendo due rampe di scale, si trova la cripta sotterranea in origine destinata alle sole sepolture dei frati spagnoli e dei cittadini illustri della cittadina; nell'ultimo secolo la cripta ha giocato una parte importante durante la rivoluzione filippina del 1896 e la guerra filippino-americana del 1899, servendo da luogo segreto di riunione e da nascondiglio per i patrioti filippini. Ugualmente, durante la seconda guerra mondiale, la cripta fu utilizzata come rifugio dai guerriglieri. L'uso della cripta da parte dei patrioti filippini è il motivo per cui la struttura fu dichiarata monumento nazionale.
