Cebu Sugbo Suroy suroy

Before anything is formed it starts from scratch. Just like the theory of how the universe evolved with the BIG BANG THEORY and how places have evolved from just an ordinary hometown to somewhat a developed scenery.

On my trip in cebu I have came across through MUSEO de CEBU and I was astonished with the great evolution of the famous places there, I've seen famous articrafts that was recovered way way back from the oldest era.

BUT what I want to share is the pictures I have taken from MUSEO SUGBO.

First, here is a picture of FUENTE OSMEÑA 72 years ago.

FUENTE OSMEÑA 1936

Quite aged, isn't it? So evolution and development happened, here's how FUNETE OSMEÑA looks like now, year 2008.

Another spectacular and the most distinguished place here in Cebu is THE CAPITOL.

The Cebu Capitol, built in 1937 during the incumbency of Gov. Sotero Cabahug, is the terminus of Jones Ave. Strategically located at the foot of a hill, the graceful capitol commands a dramatic setting. Classic elements contribute to the sedate beauty of the structure. Its concave facade links two wings of the capitol forming a u-shaped plan. The facade leads to a tall foyer capped by a dome. Inside the dome is painted the history of Cebu. The foyer leads to the wings on either side. The Cebu Capitol is easily one of the more beautiful civic buildings built during the American colonial period.
