I’ve always enjoyed Bisita Iglesia for the fact that the churches and cathedrals we visit always captivate me. The beauty of the churches and the art always caught my eyes. Among all the churches we visit I always favored “The Cathedral” the size itself makes me stare at it for quite a while. The design and architecture always mesmerizes me. Well, not only the church but the place where it is too. Intramuros is historical. The guards who still walk those streets, still wear those old fashioned uniforms. Just standing there made me feel the history of the Philippines. Somehow whenever I walk there I feel proud to be a Filipino.
Walking in those huge doors of the church makes me feel like I’m stepping into a new time, a new age. An age of elegance and art. It feels like I walked along side the people of the renaissance. It is indeed such an amazing and uplifting experience. I always marvel at its grandeur, I usually find myself standing in the center of the aisle basking in the elegance and radiance of the church. It makes me feel grand. My eyes usually can never stay in one spot always shifting from one amazing peice of art to another. Every part of that church looks grand no matter how old it is already. Being in that church makes me experience history.
