The Historical Sinking Bell Tower of Laoag on Day and Night
Sinking bell tower |
The sinking bell tower is an ancient structure that reminds the colonization of the Spanish government in Laoag city. It sinks by one to two inches during earthquakes. This is a tourist attraction in the City of Laoag.
There are images of angels and demons on every sides of it, the image of Mama Mary is the biggest image shown on this side. To give emphasize on it , the government of Ilocos Norte decided to put up lights on its windows.
There are also residential and business structures that were attached on it before and I wanted those to be removed. Luckily and finally the government of Ilocos Norte wanted to promote tourism in the province, so they renovated the place living the bell tower alone, now the people can enjoy its overall view.
The bell tower is still functional and being used during spacial occasions.
