- Hungry-sailor86San Fernando La Union, Philippines464 contributionsthis museum we discovered by accident mot realising its historical significance
it has a real role in the katipunero movement and saw many key moments in overthrowing spanish colonialism as well as celebrating the heroism of its former occupants
tour guide was highly knowledgable which is good as not much to read to explain the story
all in all the tour takes around 40 minutes including a video and a full tour of the house but it is long enough to hold kids attention and educate themWritten 24 September 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Our private tour guide, Rose Ilagan met and toured us at the Minor Basilica of St. Martin of Tours. Then we toured the Our Lady of Caysasay Shrine and the Sta. Lucia Well, which unfortunately were both under restoration. We couldnt go inside the Caysasay Shrine, but we could see how they were stripping the yellow paint in order for the original stone and carvings to show. Then we lit candles by the well and wiped ourselves with the healing waters. Then we toured 3 ancestral homes - Apacible, Agoncillo and Galleria Taal.
Galleria Taal had an extensive collection of over 200 working cameras. That alone is such a treasure. Also interesting were never before seen pictures dated 1700 onwards. Even if you're not a camera buff, the museum is one to see.
Lunch served at Candida Cafe at Galleria Taal was all of Taal's specialties - native chicken tinola, adobo sa dilaw, tapang Taal, sinaing na tulingan, maliputo, ensaladang talong, minatamis na saging, fried suman tsokoleche, kapeng barako. Everything was really good! Yummy also was the vegetable empanada, which had sotanghon inside.
For a whole day guided tour with such a sumptuous lunch, we spent P1,000 per person. Money worth spending. Fun and educational at the same time.Written 2 April 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Free, though donations are happily accepted.Written 17 June 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Melissa CManila, Philippines65 contributionsOne of the heritage houses in Taal is the former house of Marcela Mariño Agoncillo and her family. More popularly known as the Mother of the Philippine flag, Marcela is credited as the main seamstress of the Philippine flag President Aguinaldo used in his declaration of our country’s independence.
I like that this Spanish-era ancestral house is well-maintained. Another pleasant surprise is a mini park beside the property that is also well-maintained where you can have your picture taken with the various Philippine flags and historical markers.Written 5 June 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
