Minor Basilica of the Black Nazarene
University of the Philippines - Manila
and
Our group was assigned to have a research and visit the Minor Basilica of the Black Nazarene or the Quiapo Church and the University of the Philippines – Manila. The Quiapo Church was our first destination. Actually, it was my first time to go there, and I can say that it is one of the biggest churches I’ve been to. The exterior part of the church is dressed by intricate motifs and grand architectural details. Also, the interior part was great. Then, the second place we explore was the University of the Philippines- Manila including the Philippine General Hospital and its buildings, halls and colleges. Also, it was my first time to go in UP Manila. Upon entering the campus, the UP buildings were placed apart having a similarity with our school (PUP). The architectural style of the buildings was more of western touch like using the pendentives and Greek orders. The architectural details and motifs were simple but great.
From its smallest details to overall grandeur, the buildings were brought us to a timeless appeal for both younger and older generations. And as an Interior Design student, it was important to explore new things to indulge ourselves from both old and modern trends.

Famously and widely known as the Quiapo Church especially due to its location in District of Quiapo, Manila, in the Philippines.
It is one of the famous and most visited churches of the Philippines, mainly because of the reason, that Filipinos are known to believe in miraculous images, and one these treasured images is the Black Nazarene, a much venerated statue of Jesus Christ, which resides in this very Church.
On 29 August 1586, Governor-General Santiago de Vera founded the District of Quiapo as a suburb of Spanish Manila. The FranciscanMissionaries built the first church on the site, using bamboo for the frame and nipa palm as thatching. Saint Pedro Bautista, a Franciscan missionary and martyr, was one of the founders of the Quiapo Church and several other churches in what is now Metro Manila and Laguna. The original church burned down in 1639 and was replaced by a stronger edifice, which was partially destroyed by an earthquake in 1863.
Under the supervision of Rev. Eusebio de León and Rev. Manuel Roxas, the third church was completed in 1899. Roxas had raised the unprecedented amount of ₱40,000.00 from donations and lay contributions. On 30 October 1928, the church again caught fire and was almost completely destroyed. Doña Encarnación Nakpíl de Orense, then the head of the Parish Committee, raised funds for the reconstruction. Filipino National Artist, architect Juan Nakpil (the son of composer Julio Nakpil) added the dome and a second belfry to the edifice.

The University of the Philippines Manila (usually referred to as U.P. Manila), founded in 1908, is a coeducational and public research university in the Philippines. It is located in the city of Manila, the country's capital. It is the oldest of the seven (7) constituent universities of the University of the Philippines System. Its oldest degree-granting unit is the College of Medicine, which was founded in 1905 as the Philippine Medical School, predating the founding of U.P. by three years.
It is the center of health sciences education in the country, with the establishment of the National Health Sciences Center. It is also a reputable research center in the health sciences in the Asia-Pacific rim. It exercises administrative supervision over the Philippine General Hospital (the largest medical center and the national referral center for health in the Philippines), National Institutes of Health, Ugnayan ng Pahinungod, and Continuing Education. U.P. Manila is a reputable school of tertiary learning in the health sciences, and more high school students interested in this field apply to it than any other college or university in the country.
As of 2001, the Commission on Higher Education of the Philippines has identified 2 centers of excellence (COE) in U.P. Manila. The COEs in the University are Medicine and Nursing, with the U.P. College of Medicine as the very first Center of Excellence in Medical Education in the Philippines.[2] It is currently among only five medical institutions to be recognized as Centers of Excellence in Medical Education.
