Casa Gorordo

概要

クイックファクト: Three generations of the Gorordo family lived in this 19th-century residence before it became a museum in the 1980s. Its volcanic stone walls, narra floorboards, and capiz-shell windows showcase how wealthy Filipino families lived during the Spanish colonial era.

見どころ: Step into the kitchen and you will find the original wood-fired brick oven still intact, the same one where the Gorordo matriarch once baked pan de sal each morning. The ceiling above the dining table features a removable panel, a clever design that let the family pull up a bottle of wine from the cellar below without leaving their chairs.

インサイダーヒント

• The guided tour is included with entry, so do not rush through the house on your own or you will miss the best stories.
• Skip the stilettos. The original narra floorboards creak and dent easily; flat shoes protect both the wood and your balance.
• Run your hand gently along the wall outside the master bedroom where faint scorch marks remain from a candle that tipped over during a 1920s typhoon.
• Visit the rear garden after touring the house for a quiet spot away from the street traffic.
