Like what I said in my previous post, it was a Sunday when we went to Boac and all establishments are closed. We decided to go to the Boac Cathedral which is located just a few walks away from the hotel.
The Boac Cathedral was built in 1792 and is home to the Holy Mother of Mercy. The Katipunan flag was blessed on this church in 1899.
The people in the town of Boac believed that their patron saint rescued them during the Moro’s attack in the 18th century.
After church, we went to the town plaza. Bodette’s Gift Shop carries all kinds of souvenirs and pasalubongs. They also sell masks used for the Moriones festival. I was able to buy the nicest, most effective “suyod” here.
