the beauty of Loboc Church then...



I was saddened by the news that Loboc church was devastated by 7.2 magnitude earthquake early today, October 15, 2013. I personally liked that church, because it has kept its beauty for almost 300 years, it has an adjacent museum that has relics dating back 16th century, and its location --- perfect, just across the Loboc river.

THE AFTERMATH...

The famous Bell Tower.

***as you can see there is an unfinished bridge on the left, based on our tour guide, it remain uncompleted because the people didn't support the destruction of the church***



2 years ago, Me and my partner-in-life, went to a vacation in Bohol. Aside from the charm Panglao island has, we also visited amazing churches near Tagbilaran. 
And one of them is the Loboc church.

I am still glad that I get to visit the church before it was ruined.

We will visit Bohol again this December, too bad my children wont be able to witness the then-beauty of the Loboc Church. :(
