PHOTOWALK feat. Santo Niño Shrine

The Santo Niño Shrine is one of the 29 presidential rest houses that the late Pres. Ferdinand Marcos had built.*

Santo Niño, a representation of the infant Jesus Christ, is the patron saint of Leyte. It is located in Real Street, Tacloban City. Paintings of the 14 stations of the Cross done by Filipino artists, wooden bas-relief of the legend of the First Filipino man-woman (Si Malakas at si Maganda); tastefully decorated guestrooms of varied Filipino motifs; image of the Holy Child; a collection of original paintings by Fernando Amorsolo; spacious ballroom; and priceless collector's items are only some of what's inside.*
