Why Antipolo church is famous?

IMG_20220911_160523.jpg The Virgin of Antipolo': Antipolo's famous church. Our Lady of Peace and Good Voyage is the well known “Virgin of Antipolo”: a wooden image of the Blessed Virgin Mary, profoundly worshiped in the Philippines. It is known that the Philippines were invaded by the Spaniards and ruled by them for more than 300 years.

Mysteriously vanished

It's quite noticable that there are a lot of churches in the Philippines, Christianity is really a big part of their culture. One of the most celebrated holy images, the Black Madonna, is being held as sacred in Antipolo's cathedral. During the construction of this church in the 1630s, the image would mysteriously vanish several times from its shrine, only to reappear atop a tipolo (breadfruit) tree. The image's pedestal is supposedly made from the trunk of the tipolo tree, which also gave its name to Antipolo itself.
