Photowalk: Intramuros Part1

Kung inyong natatandaan mga kablog ako'y naglagay ng Teaser: National Museum of the Philippines and Intramuros noong nakaraang araw. Uunahin ko muna ang Intramuros dahil inaayos ko pa yung ilang mga larawan sa National Musuem at ito naman Intramuros eh hahatiin ko ng 2 o 3 parte para naman di masyadong magulo at magkakaroon din tayo ng kaunting lakbay aral di ba?

Simulan natin dito.....

Ayon sa kasaysayan ang ibigsabihin ng Intramuros ay [(Latin) intra: within; muros:walls]. The popular name given to the walled city of Spanish Manila.
The name “Manila” (it is claimed) derives from nilad, a type of mangrove that bore white waxy flowers (Ixora).

Itong larawan na ito ay di ko alam kung anung meron siguro isa itong paglalarawan sa hinagpis ng mga kabalyero noong araw... nasa labas ito ng Intramuros at harap ng National Museum.

Kung di ako nagkakamali isa to sa mga bagong istraktura sa Intramuros dahil kung luma ito mababakas mo ang kasaysayan nito sa mga bato.

Habang kami naglilibot ng kasama kung blogger eh, biglang may lumipad sa aming harap, yun pala isang golf ball buti na lang di kami tinamaan nito..

According to wikidepia The Manila Bulletin (PSE: MB), (also known as the Bulletin and previously known as the Manila Daily Bulletin and the Bulletin Today) is the Philippines' largest broadsheet newspaper by circulation, followed by the Philippine Daily Inquirer. It bills itself as "The Nation's Leading Newspaper", which is its official slogan. Founded in 1900 as a shipping journal, it is the second-oldest Philippine newspaper, second only to The Manila Times.

It was originally owned by a Swiss expatriate named Hans Menzi. The Manila Bulletin survived the Martial law era of President Ferdinand Marcos for propaganda purposes.

The newspaper is owned by Filipino-Chinese business mogul Emilio Yap, who, aside from the Manila Bulletin Publishing Corporation (the paper's controlling company), also owns the Manila Hotel, Centro Escolar University and Euro-Phil Laboratories. The company has been listed on the Philippine Stock Exchange since 1990, and had revenues of approximately US$45 million in 2004. Besides its flagship it publishes two other daily tabloids, Tempo and Balita, as well as nine magazines such as the Philippine Panorama, Bannawag, Liwayway, Bisaya and a host of other journals in English, Tagalog, Cebuano and other Philippine languages.

The Intramuros Landmark

Patio Victoria.

According in there side... Patio Victoria has an Old World charm that can be found only within what was known during the Spanish Occupation of the Philippines as the "Walled City". Cobblestones walkways, an antique wooden gate, lush foilage and an old fashioned fountain are only some of the features that make the place perfect venue for wedding. Patio Victoria has two gardens-named after her daughters Sofia and Diana – and an air-conditioned banquet hall. All three venues can accommodate as many as 1000 guests. Both gardens have gazebos to protect guests against the sun and light showers. In case of heavy rains, the reception can move to the air-conditioned banquet hall.

At kung di ako nagkakamali madalas magshooting dito ang mga artista para sa venue sa kasal or party at kung nanonood kayo ng Wish ko lang ng GMA7 dito ang setting nila dati.

Ang dating Palacio de Sta. Potenciana na ngaun eh naging tahanan na ng  Philippines Red Cross Manila Chapte.

And Again according to wikipidea Born officially in 1947, Philippine Red Cross (PRC), a member of the International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement, has roots that trace back to the revolutionary days. It is committed to provide quality life-saving services that protect the life and dignity especially of indigent Filipinos in vulnerable situations.

The Philippine Red Cross is made of men and women from all walks of life. It is the tale of hundreds of thousands of ordinary people who devoted their time and resources to help the poorest of the poor. They are professionally trained to lend a helping hand to those in need – whoever, whenever and wherever they may be.

The PRC has been established 60 years ago. Before, the PRC used to be involved only in providing blood and in disaster-related activities and short-term pallatives. Now it also focuses on a holistic approach to uplift the condition of the most vulnerable, and a wider array of humanitarian services.
