Well, of course it’s not my first time in Argao! If you’ve been following this blog, I’m sure you’ve seen a couple of photos of Argao in the past. Now, I know you don’t want to see the same stuff. Don’t worry. There’s one thing that’s new here. Well, this was the first time that I was able to see what the inside of the Argao town church looked like. I mean, I heard that the interior looks really gorgeous but I have never personally seen it before. So, yeah, if you’ve never been to Argao before, this will also be the first time that you’ll see the church interior here. In this blog.
And, oh, speaking of ‘first times,’ this is the first time that I will be using bigger pictures in my posts. I just realized that some of the photos can be real small and that a lot of readers look at the details of each picture. And, yeah, I’ve picked a different theme, too, because the previous one is too small and ‘bigger’ pictures wouldn’t fit in the main page.
Anyways, here are the photos. Enjoy!
Ladies and gentlemen, the town church of Argao! Ain’t it a beauty?
Argao town plaza surrounded by important government buildings.
The chapel for unbaptised stillborn children called Kapilya de Sakripisyo or Chapel of Sacrifice.
Palace of Justice. Lovely!
Argao town church with its gorgeous belfry.
Argao’s Joe.
Close up of the statue.
The plaza in front of the main door of the church. Pretty neat!
When we got there, there was an ongoing workshop for photographers. They were taking pictures of a guy and a gal wearing Filipino wedding outfits. That explains the crowd in front of the door.
When the group left, we saw that the main door was actually open. So, we went in. And we saw this. Amazing!
The lovely golden altar. Wow!
A pipe organ near the main door. Lovely!

Hi Leylander, Nice big pics! Don’t forget though, that it’s your charming text that adds to the great photos!
Wow! Gorgeous place! Love it!
Wow. bag-o na ang Theme. mas nindut kai mas dako na ang mga pics. Great idea Ley!
I think this blog will never die. hehe. The best blog I’ve ever seen to promote the Cebu island.
Argao is another town that has preserved their heritage, good for them. Thanks again for the great pics, Ley. Love your new theme.
Beautiful! Thanks to the heritage watchers for being vigilant.
Perti! Nice…
never been to argao either….. thanks ley nindot kaayo mga pictures
Wow! bigger picture looks more beautiful, tnx Ley its so nice.
argao is also a very nice place with a great market. the area by the town hall has wifi too and often has free shows on. there is an area called dunhill which plays music until around midnight and there are benches to sit on. during february they play romantic music and many ‘lovers’ go there to sit and listen to the nice music. argao country park is well worth a visit and enjoy a boat ride and zip wire too.
the picture at the top called my blog and has a pic of a motorcycle, is that a book you have?
if not you should publish one, coz your good at photography and commenting. well done
Lovely golden altar? That’s the reason why Argao Church missed the chance to become a UNESCO World Heritage Site
Thanks for the great pix. Argao is one of my favorite small towns in the Philippines.
