Focusing on Baclayon, Church

Baclayon Church is one of the main tourist attractions in Bohol because of its oldness and interesting façade. It was said that a part of Baclayon was a dungeon which was used to punish natives who violated the rules of the Roman Catholic Church during 1800s.

There also a big upside down ecclesial painting on the wall on top of the altar ceiling which made the interior very cunning.

Everything in this church is old starting from its ceiling to floorings. Unlike other churches, Baclayon Church has refined regular-sized vintage paintings hanging on every pillars inside. I also saw a very old organ on the second floor which was in very poor condition.

An attention-grabbing visage on one of the pillars of the church, which was said to be Padre Pio, is also one of the main reasons why this place became a tourist attraction.

Outside the church, you can also offer candles and pray for your wishes. Each color has a designated connotation. In the event, I chose green. A few weeks after that, my boyfriend that time proposed, just sharing a little information.

Baclayon Church is worth visiting, I suggest you don’t skip this when availing tour package in Bohol.
