MY GREAT EXPERIENCED EXPLORING OUR HISTORY!

        Philippine National Museum is one of the greatest place where we can see the history of our country. Traveling to Manila with my classmate was so enjoyable because we're both enjoying exploring the beauty of our country and the preservation of all non-living and living creatures.

Luneta Park

On our visit at Luneta Park we saw the big statue  of  Lapu - lapu ,the Philippine Map, the Ifugao Hut Courtyard and the Monument of Dr. Jose P. Rizal.

Their are many people like tourist taking pictures with our greatest Filipino heroes, we also saw families on the park that are very happy and they have bonding's like picnics, celebrating birthday and etc. There were also many college students like us that are visiting the park to do their school activities. On our way to National Museum we met vendors that are very friendly and hospitable to us. They told us what to do before we enter the National Museum. 

THE SAN DIEGO TREASURES AND PORCELAINS COLLECTIONS

In finding the collections of San Diego Treasures and Porcelains we had a hard time finding it because we didn't recognize it early. but after I read all the scripture of the following  San Diego treasures and porcelains, I've recognized that all  the ceramics plates jar, ceramic, pottery and porcelain bowls, vases and figures, and the gold coins are the things that we're looking for.
  I'm so very amazed and happy of what I saw in the San Diego's treasures and porcelains. It reflects on me that I should appreciate and be proud of what our government did to recovered all, to still remained and remembered what happened in our history.

San Diego Ship Porcelains

The San Diego Stoneware Jars

This is not my first time saw this jars, but for me this is the best jar I saw on my entire life, because for it shows the strength and good ideas of  art of the first jar maker.

 

I also like this jars because i love antiques like this jars. Since I was a kid I always watch Discoveries and mysteries of some ancient treasure and ancient materials. I always do some adventures in searching for new ideas for me to learn more knowledge and wisdom about history.

Manunggul & Maitum Jar

Upon entering the room of the jars I feel so nervous because I feel there is some mystery about the two jars. My classmate told me that he feels something in the place were the jars are place, after I captures the images of the following jars we both feel crazy and immediately get outside the place of the jars. We discovered that the two jars are the first burial jars of early humans in the country.


The Replica of Duyong Cave

The Duyong Cave in the southwest coast of the Palawan Island is a site of the earliest intact burial ever discovered in the Philippines which shows traces of man's humanity during the New Stone Age. Excavated in the cave were a 179-centimeter skeleton in a flexed position, bronze tools, glass and gold beads, glass bracelets, shell adzes and ornaments, and nut-chewing paraphernalia which dated between 300 to 500 B.C.

The Butuan Boat

The Butuan boat is an edged- pegged plank type of boat. The planks were made from hard wood like ‘doongon’ (Heriteriera littoralis). Built to withstand long-distance voyages, the boat can seat 25 people.

The San Diego Ship & Cannon Ball

The galleon of San Diego was built as the trading ship of San Antonio before hastily being converted into a warship. It's really cool and nice to see personally the San Diego ship and the cannon ball. The bullet of the cannon is different from the present cannon bullet, as I saw the bullets its just like a stone that carve in a circle form.

The Instruments

The Maranao Gong

Ifugao Blanket

The Ifugao's are very talented in making dress designing. in museum I saw saw images of our native Ifugao's, some of them have tattoos in the body and i saw the instruments they're are using in making blanket. Ifugao's are native Filipinos that has a talent in creating new passion in making blanket. I'm so glad that saw everything in the museum.

Exploring our history in National Museum was so fun and enjoyable. because anything that I want to know about the Philippine history is all their. It is very amazing that government preserved all important matters to remember our history by the next generations, like animal, species that we never saw personally are all there in the Philippine National Museum.

I will tell my story about what I've experienced during my journey in exploring our history. It was worth it even I got tired walking in finding all that I needed to find because now I know that all thing work together for good!!!
