Carcar,
Chicharon, ampao, bocarillo,
Good Friday cruxificions,
Leon Kilat's assasination,
Rotunda, St. Catherine's School,
Nuisance tricycles,
Horrific traffic,
Lawless and ignorant drivers....
ok, ok, will stop here...
it is also an excellent place to see Historic Homes...
What is a historic home?
It is an old home worthy of historic preservation,
at least 50 years old,
and looks almost the same way as it did in the past.
It is a home associated with significant
events, people and developments in the past.
It is a home that may have some landscape,
architectural or engineering significance in the past.
In other countries,
they have special historic societies,
and historic registries,
that document, fund,
and restore historic homes.
Here in Cebu and in Carcar in particular,
there are many noteworthy historic homes,
one of them is the Mancao Home.
