Thanks for the nostalgic video of Iloilo City. Most of the places I have seen around the world are like what Iloilo looked like in the pre-WW II era. I truly wish the people entrusted with city planning take their job seriously.
It’s very sad because most of the original structures visible in these photos were destroyed by the war. Manila as well, it’s very beautiful in the pre-war era.
Hi po I’m elmar Cortez pure Ilongo po. I really like your vidoe .ask me sana Pwd ko po magamit po Eto for my project sa abudhabi po ako ngayon as blogger ka start lng po . Thank you and God bless
But eventually, Iloilo is now rising once again as it is one of the richest province and City in the Country, it all happend because of a clean and good governance with the support of the disciplined people☺. And btw you don't have the right to call Ilonggos bobo, in fact many Iloilo schools are topping the board exams. Hindi naman siguro tatawaging "Wakanda of the Philippines" ang Iloilo kung mga bobo ang mga nakatira dun. Have a good night or good morning rather😊
@Tyson Mars yes, Iloilo is among the Top 10s richest provinces. And where did you get that nakaw2 incidence? Paki lapag nga dito☺kung wala kang ibang gagawin kundi manira, better not to waste my time.
@Tyson Mars the people who are accusing Drilon have no evidence to support their accusations. In addition, bago pa ang SEA games marami nang beautification projects ang nangyari sa Iloilo, it all started since 2012.
Ito yung original na Queen City of the South eh... well until now naman. Parang royal blood pa din ang mga Ilonggo... mababait, mahihinahon, palakaibigan.... nakakapanghinayang lang na may umagaw na sa titulo na yan... na obviously hindi nila deserve. Praying na sana ma-restore ang former glory ng Iloilo.
Please dont say that Cebu didn't deserve the title, respect lang po ok🤗, though I admire the determination for wanting to retain the title "Queen City of the South" for Iloilo, remember to always be respectful and never be vulgar, Just like what you said Ilonggos are nice so their actions should reflect those things, always be kind ok, and never give up I'm sure one day Iloilo will be dubbed "Queen city of the south" again 👑🤗🤗🤗
@@sunnysundae2257 yung iba kasi , ginagawa sa comment , sabotage lng sa tagacebu at iloilo, yung nag uumpisa ntan yung mga hindi nmn taga roon sa mga nabanggit nalugar,
Great vid. However, it would have added value to the video if you labeled them for proper ID. I could imagine the "Aahs" and "Ohs" once viewers realized what they were looking at and comparing it to the present times.
Wowwww! Where did this video come from? Did you hide this inside a clam before it came out? Nami nami daw ma tumbling ako kag magwawaw sa kalipay sa tunga dalan looking ay how pretty my city is. Thank you very much for renewing my pride of place...

QUEEN MARIA CRISTINA OF AUSTRIA WHOSE QUEEN ESCORT OF KING ALFONSO XII OF SPAIN AND NAMED ILOILO "REINA CIUADAD DEL SUR" AND "LA MUY LEAL Y NOBLE CIUDAD DE ILOILO" IN A ROYAL DECREE ON 1890. BECAUSE IN ALL OF THE CITIES ILOILO IS HER FAVOURITE🌹❤👑
been to iloilo a few times, saw some relatives, enjoy lunches at breakthrough by the beach, stayed a few times at amigo and got a 30 per cent discount from maridel, the good old days, when her son managed it, no more discounts!
Though I'm young, I want to see Iloilo in the Early years having peaceful and smoke free city from belching cars, and maybe the streets are not that populated at all and is safe to travel. Seeing these photos here touched my heart. Taga Zarraga gle hehehe
Christopher Uy we took the roro from bacolod to dumangas then a tricycle to zarraga then a jeepney to leganes then a bus to caticlan on the way to boracay.
Left Iloilo in 1972 to the US, came back in 2017 and it’s fun and sad at the same time. Waiting for this scamdemic to be over. For now bantay diri sa commiefornia. Iloilo ang banwa ko. Matam is gid sa puso❤️
That was 1979 when i left iloilo and the train system was managed by phividec ,when i come back for a vacation in 1995, the train is gone and there were already some houses on its tracks.
there's really something about old photos that fascinate me. I made a video about a similar subject but specific to a certain landmark in Jaro. check it out on my channel!
Niño Donguines Sus ginoo bakit saan kaba lumaki? Tingnan mo sa ibang blogger maraming mansion stab at maraming mayayaman na galing sa Iloilo. Yang shabulalay na bansag nang presidente mong may tupak dinediscribe lang nya yong sarili nya at bayan nyang Davao.
No its the second oldest city by a Royal Decree of Queen Ma. Cristina of Spain in 1889 and given a coat of arm, with a Title, La Muy Noble Y Leal Ciudad de Iloilo, after Manila 1574. Manila was given the named the Ever Distinguished and Loyal City in 1574 while Cebu City technically became only a city in 1937. Cebu never been proclaimed as city legally and historically although Cebu City is the first and oldest Spanish settlement ever in the country in 1565.
