Our Lady of Atonement Cathedral / Baguio Cathedral

P9248502
I think it was the year 80's during my 1st visit in Baguio when I was a youngling and first time to attend a mass here with my family and grand mom, and after more than 20 years, I'm back to check it and saw lots of changes around it. The cathedral didn't change, but the structures around it are more different. The place got crowded already and can't bear to look at the covered parking area beside the cathedral. The Baguio Cathedral was once an evacuation center during the World War II, and not as a fortress just like in our featured churches last time we posted here in my blog.

they added this mini water falls to add ambiance and they installed a pigeon and bird cage on the other side, it is so big, I wonder if they have eagles or owls in it.
