Sto.Nino Shrine Tacloban before typhoon "YOLANDA"

Before living Tacloban we pass by Sto Nino shrine museum, for a small city like Tacloban,this is one spot you cant miss.Which showcase the different cultures of Filipinos and definitely this place is one of the most visited tourist spot of Tacloban. According to its resident tourist guide the shrine owes its popularity to the hundreds of artworks and artifacts brought by former first lady Imelda Marcos from different countries  back when it was still one of the 29 residential houses of the first former first couple.

former first lady designed this to represent Filipino cultures of different region.Unfortunately sto nino shrine was one of the affected by the typoon "YOLANDA"and the place is still sequestered property of presidential commission on good governance (PCGG) and for now is off limits to anyone until the PCGG gets to account all the items in the shrine and determine their condition. it will take a long time before it will open again to public.
