Old Lucban Church in Quezon Province

I was amazed with the architectural design inside. This was my solo backpacking trip to Lucban Quezon last May 15, 2012. Lucban Church is dedicated to their patron saint commonly name as San Isidro Labrador and a truly a great example of old classical architecture in the Philippines.The first one was built in 1595 and was destroyed in 1629, and a second church was constructed between 1630 and 1640 but was seriously damaged by fire in 1738. What I heard is that the people in Lucban don’t like the exterior part to be repaired or repainted to maintain the church. On the right side of the church is the site of the La Casa de Doña Ana, a big "bahay na bato".
