Album Description:

Though not a Catholic, I felt drawn to visit this church just to witness for the first time & first-hand the deep devotion of pilgrims, & to discover the amazing historical origin of my country's much visited shrine. I left the place deeply enriched.

    • In Antipolo, Philippines, one finds the religious shrine of Our Lady of Peace and Good Voyage, popularly known as the Virgin of Antipolo. The origin of our Virgin of Antipolo dates back to Spanish era in the Philippines, when galleon trade between the Philippines and Mexico were at its height. For three centuries now, this church (the icon's home) has been the object of pilgrimages all over the Philippines. (Taken from http://www.antipolocity.com/church.htm)
