The Manduriao church might not be as historic as the other churches of the city but it is worth a visit. It is located in front of the town plaza and was probably built in the 19th century. Built to complement Iloilo's old world distinction, the exterior is somewhat a combination of modern and classical architecture and the idea of having twin belfries could have been possibly inspired by the usual Hispanic Era Churches in the region.

Another nice shot. Thanx for sharing.
Remodeled in the 90's through Msrg. Montiague's savings and effort. Who incidentally was my Latin Professor.
