This e-book is the first that I have produced for www.simbahan.net and it highlights the built heritage structures, religious edifices that have been built during the Spanish colonial period consisting of 35 beautiful images.

Philippine Spanish colonial era churches are heritage structures that attests to the skill and religious fervor of Filipinos. The 35 edifices featured in this downloadable PDF e-book can be found from Luzon to Visayas and Mindanao as built by the different religious orders assigned in different areas in the country. It showcases the so called earthquake baroque, an adaptation of western architectural styles that is uniquely Pinoy.
