Aside from Cambais Falls & Mt. Lanaya, there are a lot of beautiful things to see in Aegria. Posting soon… 

It is Heritage Month and one way of celebrating it is to visit the great museums of Cebu. And of course, first on the list is Museo Sugbo. 

Who would thought that an old building where hardened criminals once stroll along its corridors and convicts used to gather in its spacious square will now host some of Cebu’s most valuable historical possessions?

Museo Sugbo, Cebu’s provincial museum, was once the Cebu Provincial Detention and Rehabilitation Center (CPDRC), home of the famous dancing inmates. This old building is located along M. J. Cuenco Ave., a part of an old Spanish-era district in Cebu City.

Before it became CPDRC, it was called Carcel de Cebu. Designed by Dominggo de Escondrillas in 1869, this was built to be the main prison for the Visayas District similar to that of Bilibid prison in the capital.

Whenever Jobers calls for a photoshoot in Museo Sugbo, I always say yes. Here, got the feeling of what it was to be a jail guard way back when the museum was still the CPDRC.☺

Here’s how the museum looks like on top… Nice feeling & thank you so much Rey for the lift. :D
