    this is a nice photo of a gothic styled church. i never knew there were churches like this in southeast asia... i'm just wondering how old is this church?

    The church was started by the Augustinian Fr. Antonio Estavillo in 1694. It was completed in 1710 and rededicated in 1896, just three years before the expulsion of Spanish rule in the country

    If you get a chance to visit the northern part of the Philippines include Ilocos Norte in your itinerary, the birthplace of Ferdinand Edralin Marcos.
