Stay awesome and remember, we're all in this wonderful Hive journey together😉. Cheers to our amazing Hive family!
Moving now to our daily shots this time in Manila. We visited here on a bright and sunny noon when my family and I entered the Manila Museum of Arts which is a place of both culture and history of the country. The museum is a treasure trove of Filipino arts was also open on the weekend and also offered free entry to everyone. As we stepped inside, there was a vibrant scene of families and tourists from all corners of the country, each eager to explore the art and history that the museum had to offer.
Our first stop was the iconic Spoliarium which is a masterpiece by the renowned Filipino painter Juan Luna. The painting is a dramatic depiction of dying gladiators pulled by some cleaners. As we stood before it there's this connection to the past where art was not just a form of expression but saying something vocal.
Moving on to the other parts and rooms, we explored the vast collection of works by other Filipino artists and each piece of their arts was telling a story of the country's rich cultural heritage. The museum has spacious galleries and nice curations some even lent by collectors to display here, the museum allowed us to appreciate the art in an observing kind of atmosphere. It was a journey through time about struggles and everyday life of the Filipino people.
As we walked through the large hallways, we were amazed by the diversity of the artworks. There were classical paintings and then also contemporary pieces that have modern themes. These artworks serve as windows to the souls of their creators as some people say.
Our visit to the Manila Museum of Fine Arts was not just for our sightseeing experience but also a journey of discovery and spending quality time with my family. The pieces reminded us of the importance of preserving our history and culture because these arts are crucial role in keeping the past stories alive for future generations to see and appreciate the rich artistic heritage of our country the Philippines.
