Mabuhay Hivers!!!
Today I am going to share my latest vlog this is about the 19th Century church in Loon, Bohol Philippines. This church was the finest and biggest in central Philippines during the time it was built and aside from that this church was beautiful and elegant. This is the Birhen sa Kasilag church in Loon Bohol. The image below was the church before it was destroyed by the 7.2 earthquake that hit the Island of Bohol.
And this what happened after the earthquake.
The parishioners of Loon were devastated by the destruction of the earthquake and they could not hold their sadness looking at what was left to their beautiful church. That was me standing trying to contemplate on how the people of this peaceful town could find a way to bring back their church. But after 8 years it the church was restored, check the images below of the fully restored 19th century old church.
I thought it was impossible to restore old churches in the Philippines, but I was wrong they have complete documents of the church including the interior design, and that help a lot in restoring the beautiful church of Loon.
Check this video and see the complete details of the old church.
