FB Manila Cathedral #3

I could just imagine the artillery flying overhead as bombs kept hitting the Manila shoreline and people would try to seek shelter within the walls of the cathedral. During the second world war, the cathedral was destroyed as the Americans were trying to drive out the Japanese by basically blowing everything up in their path. At the very least, the basic form and features of the cathedral was kept intact as it was rebuilt.
