The century old church of Hinigara, taken right while i am riding on a motorcycle. This church was built in 1858. This can be seen along the way if youre on trip to southern part of Negros Occidental like Kabankalan.
On this said church, St.Mary Magdalene Parish,on the modern day, has the gold-silver bells.Aside from that the Church also has a relic of St.Mary Magdalene which came from Portugal long time ago.(Im not pretty sure if its Portugal)
On the History,this church greatly influenced the natives of Negros. As claimed by one Facebook user,this is the first church in the whole Negros.
