Another historical church
This church is locally known as the Candon Church.
Constructed with an earthquake resistant Baroque design.
This church was built in 1575 but destroyed by earthquake in 1948.
We were only able to visit and view the outside but I love the old structure of historical churches.

Richness and simplicity
Another jem to take in on the way to see the Miagao Church farther south. Similar to Miagao, this one features intricate floral stone carving. There is considerable evidence in the literature that the skilled building trades in the Visayas were dominated by Chinese craftsmen. Chinese architecture during the Ming and Qing dynasties exhibit fabulous stone carving, not dissimilar from that seen on the Tigbauan church façcade. The Tigbauan stone carving would appear to be another rich multicultural amalgam of influences and skills which also produced the stone carving in Miagao and San Joaquin. The facade contains most of the original elements, while the interior suffered greatly from he 1948 7.8 Lady Caycay earthquake - the interior is beautiful but largely rebuilt and decorated since that period. Another peaceful location to take in the beautiful church architecture so abundant in this area.
