Our Lady of Atocha Church

A very impressive church just at the roadside in Alicia. Everytime I pass this highway, I can’t help but marvel at its beauty. That’s why I really planned to stop here and check it out. The church is impressive however, the interior has already been remodeled and the bell tower, new.

St. Rose of Lima Church

Another impressive church whose form calls to mind the one in Dupax del Sur. Very simple and really different from the usual brick church form like that of Alicia, Tumauini and Cauayan.

I was just able to pass by this cathedral along the highway just outside the main center of Ilagan. I’m quite impressed with the design and the rosettes that decorate the facade. A massive church, this was recently built.
