Palazzo di Malacañan

Il Palazzo di Malacañan (in filippino Palasyo ng Malakanyang; in inglese Malacañang Palace) è la residenza ufficiale e il principale ufficio del presidente delle Filippine. Storia La struttura originaria fu costruita nel 1750 da Luís Rocha come casa estiva affacciata sul fiume Pásig. L'edificio fu acquistato dallo Stato nel 1825 per fungere da residenza estiva per i governatori generali delle Filippine. Dopo che il terremoto del 3 giugno 1863 distrusse il Palacio del Gobernador (Palazzo del Governatore) ad Intramuros, divenne ufficialmente la residenza del Governatore-Generale. Nel 1898, a seguito del passaggio di sovranità dell'arcipelago nelle mani degli Stati Uniti d'America, la struttura divenne residenza dei Governatori statunitensi, il primo dei quali fu il generale Wesley Merritt. Dal 1863 il Palazzo è stato occupato da 18 governatori-generali spagnoli, 14 governatori americani e numerosi Presidenti delle Filippine. L'edificio è stato ampliato e rimodellato più volte sin dalla sua costruzione; i pian terreni sono stati espansi per includere le proprietà confinanti, comportando la demolizione di numerosi edifici vicini durante le dominazioni spagnole e statunitensi. Le ultime importanti modifiche furono apportate nel corso dell'amministrazione di Ferdinand Marcos. Fra i Presidenti della Quinta Repubblica solamente Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo ha effettivamente vissuto nel Palazzo, mentre gli altri hanno deciso di risiedere in differenti proprietà del governo nelle vicinanze. L'edificio è stato assalito o sequestrato numerose volte per via di eventi storici, come ad esempio la rivoluzione del Rosario oppure il tentato colpo di Stato del 1989.

San Roque Church (Cavite City)

The Diocesan Shrine of Our Lady of Solitude of Porta Vaga, commonly known as San Roque Parish Church, is a Latin Rite Roman Catholic church in Cavite City on Luzon island, the Philippines. It is under the jurisdiction of the Diocese of Imus. The church enshrines Our Lady of Solitude of Porta Vaga, an icon that appeared after an apparition of the Blessed Virgin Mary. History Sitting at the southern part of the colonial walled city of Cavite, conquering Spaniards in 1571 found the place a forested swamp. Its location was very strategic for trade as it was surrounded by water, a likely reason why many Chinese frequented the place. In 1573, when the invading Chinese pirate Limahong was repulsed by the Spaniards, he retreated to the northern part of San Roque, today the Philippine military base of Sangley Point. In 1614, the province of Cavite was placed under a politico-military government, and San Roque was made an independent pueblo. Sometime in 1700, a badly damaged ship stopped for repairs at a certain place in Cavite called Sapa-sapaan. Aboard the ship was an image of Saint Roch which the crew venerated as their patron, as the custom was to have saints on board a ship during a voyage to serve as protectors. Before work began, the ship’s captain ordered that the image of Saint Roch be placed in the nipa hut that served as the town’s chapel, dedicated to Saint Margaret. After the ship had been repaired, the captain asked the workers to re-enshrine the image on the ship, but the crew could not move the statue. They told the captain of this, and they decided to leave the image in the chapel. The story spread around and since then, Saint Roch was made patron and namesake of the town. The 1818 Spanish census showed the area had 3,906 native families and 443 Spanish-Filipino families. List of Parish priests References Other references Barcelona, Mary Anne.

Lake Wood (Philippines)

Lake Wood (Subanen: Danaw) is a large lake located in the province of Zamboanga del Sur in Mindanao, Philippines. The lake is the largest in the province, and is situated at the foot of Mt. Serongan. On its shores are the municipalities of Lakewood and Kumalarang. History The lake was originally called Danaw (which is still being used by the Subanen tribe), and is part of the Subanen's ancestral domain. In 1904, in an expedition from Misamis to Dumanquilas Bay, Captain Cornelius C. Smith of the 14th Cavalry Regiment of the United States Army found Lake Danaw and proceeded to report it to the American Administration. Captain Smith then renamed the lake as Lake Leonard Wood, after the Governor-General of the time, Governor Leonard Wood. Over time, the lake's name changed to Lake Wood. Physical characteristics Lake Wood has a surface area of 7.38 km2 (2.85 sq mi) and a maximum depth of 85 m (278.87 ft). The lake's elevation is lower on the southeast side. The lake is fed by rainfall and groundwater. On the southeast side is the Biswangan River, the lake's only outlet, which flows into Dumanquilas Bay. Biodiversity Because of the limited information about Lake Wood, not much is known about the flora and fauna of the lake. There is only one known species of endemic fish that resides in the lake, that is the Rasbora philippina, locally known as Porang. Aside from fauna, several species of aquatic vegetation also grow in the lake: Hydrilla verticillata Pontederia crassipes Ipomoea aquatica (kangkóng) Nypa fruticans (nipa palm) Nymphaea Legends The lake is said by residents to be inhabited by a giant, man-eating, fish-like creature called the "Busiso" which is attracted by a certain Subanen chant. This has led to a superstition against singing while sailing along the lake. References External links Geographic data related to Lake Wood (Philippines) at OpenStreetMap
Panguil Bay Bridge

The Panguil Bay Bridge is a 3.77 km (2.34 mi) extradosed bridge that crosses Panguil Bay. It connects Tangub in Misamis Occidental and Tubod in Lanao del Norte. It is currently the longest water-spanning bridge in Mindanao. It reduces the travel time between Tangub and Tubod from 2.5 hours to just a few minutes. History Plans for a bridge in Panguil Bay had been planned as early as 1998, when a pre-feasibility study was conducted. Discussions on the Panguil Bay Bridge project began in 2014. The National Economic and Development Authority (NEDA) Board approved the Panguil Bay Bridge Project in 2015, with the Department of Public Works and Highways designated as the implementing agency. A loan agreement between the Bureau of Treasury and the Export–Import Bank of Korea-Economic Development Cooperation Fund (KEXIM-EDCF) was signed on April 28, 2016. More than two years later, the groundbreaking ceremony for the bridge was held on November 27, 2018. Construction officially began on 28 February 2020. As of May 2024, the project was 90% complete, with Imelda Dimaporo, governor of Lanao del Norte, announcing that the bridge would be opened to traffic by August. The final concrete pouring ceremony was held on July 4, 2024. The bridge was party funded under the Korean Economic Development Cooperation Agreement. The bridge was designed and constructed by Korean contractor Namkwang Engineering & Construction Corporation in a joint venture with Kukdong Engineering & Construction Co. Ltd. and Gumgwang Construction Co. Ltd. The project management consulting was provided by Yooshin Engineering Corporation, in a joint venture with Pyunghwa Engineering Consultants Ltd. and Kyong-Ho Engineering & Architects Co. Ltd. Expenses not covered by the loan were funded by the Philippine national government. On September 27, 2024, the 3.169 km (1.969 mi) ₱7.37 billion bridge was formally inaugurated and opened to traffic as the longest sea bridge in Mindanao.

Camp Bagong Diwa

Camp Bagong Diwa (lit. 'new spirit') is the headquarters of the National Capital Region Police Office, located in Lower Bicutan, Taguig, Philippines. It was formerly called as Camp Ricardo Papa in 1999 to early 2000s. Functions The camp serves many functions: within its gates are enclosed a police academy and the Taguig City Jail, but also several jail "annexes" which house inmates the government believes to be too notorious or too dangerous to be safely housed among the regular prison population. As of December 2018, the camp contains the Manila City Jail Annex, the Quezon City Jail Annex, and the Metro Manila District Jail Annexes 1, 2, and 3. The camp also contains the highest security prisons in the Philippines, the Bureau of Jail Management and Penology's Special Intensive Care Area (SICA) 1 and SICA 2. As of 2018, within SICA 1 and 2 were housed accused terrorists of the Moro National Liberation Front, Abu Sayyaf, and Maute groups along with accused communist rebels from the New People's Army (Communist Party of the Philippines). History During the Marcos dictatorship During the Marcos dictatorship, Camp Bagong Diwa was known as the Bicutan Rehabilitation Center, a major detention center for political detainees. Some of the prominent prisoners kept there at different times include journalist Chelo Banal-Formoso, activist couple Mon and Ester Isberto, and in the aftermath of the September 1984 Welcome Rotonda protest dispersal, Senators Lorenzo Tanada and Soc Rodrigo, and future Senators Tito Guingona, Aquilino Pimentel Jr., and Joker Arroyo. Prison riots On 14 March 2005, inmates from the Abu Sayyaf Group rioted inside the prison in an apparent escape attempt and barricaded the second floor of the building, leading to a standoff which ended the next day when government forces stormed the prison. 24 Abu Sayyaf members, including three of the group's leaders, three prison guards and a police officer were killed. On 7 May 2006, 14 inmates were injured in a two-hour riot between criminal gangs. Among the injured were four Abu Sayyaf members. On 6 June 2017, two inmates were killed after a noise barrage held in protest over a five-day power outage descended into a riot between criminal gangs. Seventeen others were injured. Overcrowding status As a general rule, for security reasons, the jails within Camp Bagong Diwa tend to be much less overcrowded than the Philippines jails outside; SICA 1 in April 2018 was only 25% overcrowded. However, this is not always the case; Camp Bagong Diwa also contains the Bureau of Immigration Bicutan Detention Center, which as of April 2020, is 278% overcrowded, with a capacity of 150 but a population of 418.

Chocolate Hills

Chocolate Hills (cebuánsky Mga Bungtod sa Tsokolate nebo Bohol Bungtod, tagalsky Mga Tsokolateng Burol, v překladu Čokoládové vrchy) jsou kuželovité kopce na filipínském ostrově Bohol mající v období sucha čokoládovou barvu. Pro svou výjimečnost byly navrženy k zápisu do seznamu Světového dědictví UNESCO. Bohol je jeden z Visayských ostrovů ležících v centrální oblasti Filipín. Tomuto ostrovu, velkému asi jako Mallorca, patří zvláštní místo ve filipínské historii. Zde byla v roce 1565 uzavřena první formální dohoda mezi obyvateli ostrova a španělským královstvím. Místní náčelník Datu Sikatua uzavřel smlouvu o přátelství s Miguelem Lopezem de Legazpi, vyslancem krále Filipa II., podle kterého bylo souostroví pojmenováno. Smlouvu zpečetili vypitím vína s příměsí vlastní krve, kterou nakapali do číše ze svých rozřízlých zápěstí. Od té doby se tento dokument nazývá pokrevní smlouva. Pro dnešní Filipínce je však ostrov zejména krajinou Čokoládových vrchů. Na rozlehlé plošině uprostřed ostrova se nachází 1268 strmých, pravidelných kopečků, jejichž vrcholy dosahují výšku od 30 do 100 metrů. Popis Čokoládové vrchy mají tvar navzájem si podobných kuželů či kup a stojí ve skupinách. Jejich svahy jsou porostlé trsy tvrdé trávy, které v období sucha od února do května tak vyschnou, že se kopce zbarví do čokoládova. Po přívalech vydatných tropických dešťů se kopce opět zazelenají. Jejich původ není jednoznačně objasněn, ale je zřejmé, že jejich vznik podmínilo vlhké oceánské podnebí Filipín a vlastnosti vápence, z kterého jsou utvořené. Na rozdíl od kuželového krasu v Číně, nebo škrapových polí v Dinárském krasu nejsou filipínské vápence úplně čisté. Příměsi jiných prvků a minerálů způsobují, že vápence jsou odolnější proti zvětrávání a jejich vrstevnatost je menší, a proto tady nevznikají podzemní jeskyně. Vrstva půdy a travního porostu navíc chrání vápenec před bezprostředním působením dešťové vody. Pověst Legendy ostrovanů z Boholu však mají pro původ Čokoládových vrchů jiné vysvětlení. Podle jedné pověsti vděčí vrchy za svůj vznik nešťastné lásce. Mladý a silný obr Arogo vášnivě miloval krásnou lidskou dívku Aloyu. Když zemřela, zarmoucený obr propukl v pláč a z jeho zkamenělých slz pak vznikly Čokoládové vrchy.

Chocolate Hills

Chocolate Hills est une formation géologique peu commune se situant sur l'île de Bohol aux Philippines. Cette formation est composée de 1 268 collines en forme de cône de tailles similaires (qui a dû en comporter plus de 1 700 par le passé). Ces collines sont réparties sur plus de 50 kilomètres carrés. Elles doivent leur nom à leur forme et à la végétation qui devient brune vers la fin de la saison sèche. Il existe de nombreuses légendes qui expliquent la formation de ces collines. Leur formation date d'il y a environ deux millions d'années. D'origine sédimentaire, elles sont composées de sable et de calcaire provenant de l'accumulation de couches successives de corail et de coquillages au fond de la mer. Par la suite, le mouvement des plaques tectoniques a élevé la région hors de l'eau et a créé des fractures du sol. Ce sol sédimentaire s'est trouvé façonné par dissolution et érosion dues aux eaux pluviales, de surface et souterraines qui ont donné ces formes de cônes et de ballons de hauteurs similaires (varient de 30 mètres à 50 mètres de haut). Elles sont recouvertes principalement d'herbe (Imperata cylindrica). Le site a été proposé par les Philippines pour inscription sur la liste du patrimoine mondial.

Čokoladna brda

Čokoladna brda je geološka formacija u Filipinima. Postoji najmanje 1260 brda, ali postoji mnogo manjih brda njih 1776 na površini od 50 četvornih kilometara. Brda su obrasla zelenom travom koja se tijekom sušne sezone osuši te brda poprime boju čokolade. Čokoladna brda su poznata turistička atrakcija u provinciji Bohol. Ona se nalaze na provincijskoj zastavi i pečatu te simboliziraju obilje prirodnih atrakcija u provinciji. Predložena su za uključivanje na listu svjetske baštine UNESCO-a. Vegetacijom brda dominiraju trave vrsta, kao što su Imperata cylindrica i Saccharum spontaneum. Nekoliko ih je prekriveno glavočikama i papratima. Između brda, je ravna zemlja na kojoj se uzgaja riža i drugi usjevi. Prirodna vegetacija brda ugrožena je kamenolomima. Čokoladna brda su konusna krška brda slične onima koja se nalaze u vapnenačkim regijama u Sloveniji, Hrvatskoj, sjevernom Portoriku i Kubi.
