Bit of History About Paco Manila

Dilao, was a settlement of 3000 Japanese during the Spanish era around the year 1600. The term probably originated from the Tagalog term 'dilaw', meaning 'yellow', which describes their general physiognomy[citation needed]. The Japanese had established quite early an enclave at Dilao, a suburb of Manila, where they numbered between 300 to 400 in 1593. A statue of Takayama can be found there. In 1603, during the Sangley rebellion, they numbered 1,500, and 3,000 in 1606. The Franciscan friar Luis Sotelo was involved in the support of the Dilao enclave between 1600 and 1608. The Japanese led an abortive rebellion in Dilao against the Spanish in 1606-1607, but their numbers rose again until the interdiction of Christianity by Tokugawa Ieyasu in 1614, when 300 Japanese Christian refugees under Takayama Ukon settled in the Philippines. They are at the origin of today's 200,000-strong Japanese population in the Philippines. A Sikh Temple and Unilever Philippines is located

How to Get to PACO PARK

From EDSA North~ The best way is to take the MRT-LRT train for hassle-free travel..^^ Take the MRT going to south (pa-baclaran po) then drop-off at the last station, which is the TAFT STATION ^^ from the TAFT STATION, enter METROPOINT MALL, ride the escalator to 2nd floor, see the jollibee, exit, turn right, voila! LRT STATION na! XD From LRT STATION (or EDSA STATION)- PACO PARK Ride the LRT STATION (ticket is 15 petot only) -line going to MONUMENTO. Drop-off at UN AVE. STATION. From UN AVE~ See this landmarks " Medical Center Manila and Emilio Aguinaldo College" Get your way to Gen. Luna St. all the way to PACO PARK~ or if you hate walking, there are Pedicabs over there,at the corner of Medical Center Manila, which will cost you at least 10 petot (well, that's what i recall when we went there on 2005, baka tumaas na singil nila ngaun XDDD) but i suggest walking instead...its quite near talaga. For those who likes the harder way (kidding!XD)...if you lik

Paco Church temporary official church ng Archdiocese of Manila

ANG  San Fernando de Dilao Parish Church sa Paco, Manila ang pansamantalang magiging opisyal na simbahan ng Archdiocese of Manila, partikular ngayong Mahal na Araw. Ito ang inianunsyo ng Manila Archdiocese sa kanilang website kasunod na rin ng pagsasara ng Manila Cathedral, sa Intramuros, Manila, na sumasailalim ngayon sa ekstensibong rehabilitation. Ayon sa pamunuan ng Archdiocese of Manila, napili ang Paco Church dahil sa laki nito, liturgical suitability, malawak na parking space at malapit ito sa Cathedral. http://www.remate.ph/2012/03/paco-church-temporary-official-church-ng-archdiocese-of-manila/
