👍👍 A good place to meditate. Can be crowded because it is in the center of the City. Mass schedules posted right the church entrance so as the church goers may easily see the schedules. Acessible for transportation. Has a good ventilation, it gives the church better air circulation.

Jesuit House Museum
Museum
😐 I read good reviews of this museum so i decided to drop by, paid my 100 peso entrance and said "i read this is a guided tour". The girl who took my money promptly said "yes, and i will be your guide". Well, let's just say, she was a nice person but no "guide", she knew almost nothing of the history...
