Pisamban XVI




Santa Rita de Casia Church

Popularized by a teledrama at the national TV. The church seems identical to the Santa Ana Church with its exterior features. The church is also one of those who preserved the original palitada. Once the church colored yellow before its present state of bare lime coat. Still the previous paint appears at some spots. Manong was busy goldleafing the side retablos when we went for a visit, he's also the one who goldleafed the retablo mayor. On our way back we can't resist this town well known delicasies. The town is known for delicasies such as Sansrival, Turrones de Casoy and Duman. Duman is the town's well known festival for over five years now.
