Summary
[edit]DescriptionPlaza Salcedo and St. Pauls Cathedral, Vigan, Philippines - One of The New 7 Wonder Cities of The World.jpg |
English: The St. Paul’s Cathedral is also known as the metropolitan Cathedral. It is considered a major religious landmark not only of northern Luzon but the country as well. The church as it stands now was completed in 1800. The original structure was built in 1574 upon the command of the Spanish founder of Vigan, Juan de Salcedo. It was a mere chapel then, made of wood and thatch. In 1641, the chapel was replaced by a church.
Right in front of the Saint Paul Cathedral is the Plaza Salcedo, named after the Spanish conqueror, Juan de Salcedo who subdued the early native settlement in Vigan and established upon it Villa Fernandina for the monarchs of Spain in 1572. With this, Juan de Salcedo founded the third of many Hispanic settlements in the Philippines. To honor this Spanish conquistador, a monument was erected in the city square, surrounded by all the important edifices of the town. www.vigan.ph The City of Vigan is a Unesco World Heritage Site in that it is one of the few Hispanic towns left in the Philippines where its structures remained intact, and is well known for its cobblestone streets, and a unique architecture that fuses Philippine and Oriental building designs and construction, with colonial European architecture. Because of this, Vigan City was officially recognised as one of the New 7 Wonders Cities of The World. PUBLISHED: Skyscraper City www.skyscrapercity.com/showthread.php?t=1885675&page=4 |
