Personal {Remembering World War II in a Small Philippine Island}
Tucked in the foothills of Mount Talinis in Negros Oriental is a small wooden
house that is hidden from the street by tall rambutan trees. This is the mini
World War II museum in Valencia, kept open by
a local who has been collecting World War II relics since he was a
little boy. The house is identifiable to passersby by the small white wooden
sign that bears Japanese characters (which, unfortunately for me, I could not
read).

I'm really glad to know there are people who decided to put this up. We could really use some things to remind us how people lived back then, and also for us to be able to respect those who fought and suffered during that time.
ReplyDeleteI feel the same way kat. Hopefully the museum gets some backers for its upkeep. It would be a shame if it closes down :(
ReplyDeleteLove to visit this place :)
ReplyDeleteSay hello! Coffee, perhaps? :)
