VOYAGE TO CEBU PHILIPPINES 1930s TRAVELOGUE MOVIE 45714
Andre De La Varre is the ‘Screen Traveler’ (:08) and this film will take viewers on tour through Cebu. This is the oldest island in the Philippines (:21). In 1519, the great explorer Magellan had sailed from Spain in an attempt to make it around the world (:51). In March of 1521 he fell upon the 7,000 islands that make up the Philippines (1:08). While he was killed at the neighboring island of Mactan, his crew completed the trip (1:41) and later Miguel Lopez de Legazpi (1:56) used Magellan’s previously travelled lines and established Spanish rule (1:56). This rule extended until after the Spanish American war. On the docks of Cebu which had already been an important trade center, ships are loaded with sacks of copra (2:40). Large rolled heaps of manila hemp can be seen as they are another major export (3:25). A picturesque shot of the city built on the shore is shown (3:55). The church of St. Augustine is one of the many historic churches located on the island (6:21). The effect of Spanish rule can be visualized in the Cathedral (6:34). The street previously known as the parish street (many families here had at least one son in the priesthood) is depicted (6:53). Following is the Fort San Pedro founded by the Gaspee in 1565 and is on site of the first settlement (7:29). The short film draws to a close with the American flag flying over the Philippine (8:01) and this has been a Screen Traveler Picture (8:30).

I'd love to be able to time travel (with current US $) and see the Phillipines as they were before WWII. I understand that old Manila was beautiful.

you are absolutely correct....Manila was once a progressive and beautiful country but because of the crazy WW II invented by Americans and Japanese, all the beautiful things, all around the Philippines were nothing but shambles!

Very interesting look back in history. I am presently living in Cebu for several years and continue to see more changes each year.
My hometown Cebu.❤
Cebu is love.
If only I can show this to my grandparents. This would probably give them chills.
Nice...😍😍😍 I'm from Capiz but I really LOVE CEBU. I live there 10 years and still planning to go back there for vacations. 😍🥰
Thank you Sir. This video is very important to us. I am Cebuano.
The frame of the "Hotel" shown from about 3:06 - 3:16 is still there, though of course it is no longer a hotel. The Magellan's Cross building looks almost exactly the same as it does now.

5:57 Magellans Cross. tourist attraction. beside basilica minore and infront of cebu city hall.
Can’t wait to retire to my home country in Cebu… I’m too tired of New Jersey winter !
Just wow.
2:18 Aduana Building (Customs) currently "Malacañang sa Sugbo" the bldg still intact until today.
7:33 Fort San Pedro. tourist attraction near port and within the vicinity of Basilica
8:14 background island. currently Shell Island.
galing, exporter ang Pinas dati.
3:47 a smile of a true filipino hard at work.

Wow
4:24 probably in Magallanes st. area. facing the mountains. with tartanillas as means of public transportation.which is common n that area.
4:19-4:21 Sto. Niño og Cathedral naas tumoy👍
4:04 currently M. C. Briones St. other side of this street is city hall
Colon Street looks about the same today which shows you our ability in Cebu to maintain and preserve our heritage. Tagalogs, learn from us Bisaya!
At 3:51 you can see in the background a triangular bldg.-compania Maritima. At 6:07 it seems there is no painting in the ceiling of Magellan"s cross. At 7:39 in the foreground it will be known now as Plaza Independencia.
Would love to see the colorized version

I can remember Cebu back to 1986, first time I landed. My late wife's father was the prison warden of the city jail in the 1950's and 60's. Just took a boat to Cebu last week and the city keeps changing.

Literally, a pari is Cebuano/Bisaya for Priest hence the name Parian. This was the time of American occupation, so their reference is not Spanish.
