Historical Church of Boac Cathedral in Marinduque

After dining at La Concha Restaurant in Boac. I immediately went to Boac Cathedral and take somes pictures before going to Buenavista. The church has its old gate structure and as you enter main door of the church you can see the thick and two old wooden doors.  A visit to Boac Cathedral is one sample of how an old church was preserve. According to the story inspired the creation of a new name for the Lady as Birhen ng Biglang Awa. The cathedral was dedicated to her, the 'Mother of Instant Mercy', (Pronto Socorro), in 1792. A marker on the church's front wall declares thus: "naniniwala ang mga tao na siya ang nagligtas sa pagsalakay ng mga moro noong ika-18 dantaon."
