Magtataho (Bocaue, Bulacan)

A magtataho finds a costumer in front of the Bocaue church. The Franciscans built the first building of light materials in 1578 that was replaced by Fr. Pedro Delos Santos (OFM) with a stronger structure in 1606. Afterwards, the church underwent a series of rebuilding and improvements until it was destroyed by fire in 1868. It was rebuilt and razed again during the Philippine Revolution of 1898. The church has been rebuilt and restored/repaired/improved several times since then.
