The cathedral houses the beloved Black Madonna image of Our Lady of Peace and Good Voyage, which has been drawing millions of pilgrims for centuries - even José Rizal visited here as a child with his father back in the 1800s! What makes this place extra special is that it's not just historically significant, but it also received the Golden Rose from Pope Francis in 2024, making it the first Marian church in Asia to get this honor. The current building was reconstructed after World War II with beautiful architecture designed by José L. de Ocampo. Just be prepared for crowds during pilgrimage season and religious holidays, as parking can be quite challenging given how popular this sacred site is with both locals and international visitors.

The newly declared National Shrine of St. Therese of the Child Jesus, tucked along Marcos Highway, is a serene and surprisingly rewarding stop—perfect if you’re in between plans or just looking for a peaceful breather. Elevated to national shrine status by the Catholic Bishops’ Conference of the Philippines, it now stands as one of only two national shrines in the diocese, alongside the Antipolo Cathedral and the Shrine of Our Lady of Aranzazu. What began in 2002 as a modest community chapel has quietly grown into a graceful, modern church with a meaningful presence. With its welcoming atmosphere and thoughtful design, it may be a nice spot for self-reflection, a slow walk, or even a spontaneous photo or two. Whether you're drawn to architecture, tranquil spaces, or simply discovering something new, this often overlooked shrine offers a calm and thoughtful detour. Image: Wikimedia Commons…
