National Museum of the Philippines

         Here is the separate post I'm talking about. Mainly of the photos I took in our visit at the National Museum, but not all, since there were too many, just those that I really liked/loved and those that caught my attention. I took the liberty of editing them so that it wouldn't be just the same as how you would see/view it in the museum/other pictures, though this is not what you would really see in terms of coloration/vividness because the pictures I took were already affected by the lighting of the galleries. And please do correct me if I've entered wrong information about the artworks. 

In the picture are two stained-glass windows from the Marble Hall.
