Memorare

Manila

Wikang Pilipino: Pagpupugay kay Andres Bonifacion, masigasig na tagapagtanggol ng kalayaan, supremo at dakilang ama ng katipunan. Siya ay ipinanganak sa Tondo, Maynila noong Nobyembre 30, 1863, Dahils sa pag-ibig sa tinubuang lupa, siya ay sumapi sa La Liga Filipina at nagtatag ng katipunan, isang lihim na samahan na ang layunin ay makamtan ang kasarilinan ng Pilipinas sa rebolusyunaryong pamamaraan, sumulat ng mga makabayang tula at sanaysay na naging batas ng diwang malaya ng mga Pilipino. Sa kanyang kabayanihan, ang panandang pangkasaysayang ito ay inialay ng madlang Pilipino sa kanyang karangalan sa pagdiriwang ng ikasandaang taon ng kanyang kabayanihan.

Laguna: Underground Cemetery

 One of the historical places in the Philippines, it is a fine example of Spanish colonial architectura, built by the Franciscan Friar Vicente Velloc in 1845. The underground section of the cemetery played an important role in our history because it became a safehouse for guerillas during World War II.

BANAUE RICE TERRACES
(Mountain Province, Cordillera)

These 2,000 years old terraces were carved into the mountains by Ifugao's indigenous people.

The terraces start from the base of the Cordillera mountains and reach up to a thousand

feet high. If stretched from end to end, would encircloe half of the modern world and are

a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
