Stroll or Rest In The Plaza by cyndymc Written Mar 7, 2011 While waiting for hubby who was busy with his photography, I explored the compound of the church and discovered the side gate that led to the town Plaza. The Plaza had a statue of Dr. Jose Rizal, our National hero. There are flowering plants around the Plaza, giving it a lively character. I saw some locals strolling, perhaps to have a dose of the morning sun. There are concrete benches where one can sit while resting and looking at the flowers. I loved the whiff of the wind that swept my hair while I sat on one of the benches. From my bench, I saw the waiting shed where locals patiently waited for the jeepney/bus going to Iloilo City. I noticed that jeepneys left only after being filled to capacity, while buses left immediately after a passenger went down/up. The Miagao Church was such a sight to behold from the Plaza. You will have a different appreciation of the architectural details of the church from that perspective. The massive buttresses that supported the church and the belfry that once served as watch tower were really awesome.
