Album Info:
THE MANILA-ACAPULCO GALLEON - In the span of 250 years, from 1565 to 1815, the Manila-Acapulco Galleon maintained the longest-running trans-Pacific trade route in history. It initiated not only trade between Mexico and the Philippines, but it also linked the Americas with Asia, as well as the Philippines with Spain. Over 300 voyages were undertaken by these galleons which were constructed in both Mexico and the Philippines. The Manila-Acapulco Galleon symbolizes the close cultural links between the Philippines and Mexico. ~Manila, 1998, Centennial Year
