At the back of the church



At the back of the church

This is a shot that i took at the back of the San Agustin Cathedral at Cagayan de Oro City. I took it from the other side of the Cagayan de Oro River. This picture was taken around 5:30. I deliberately underexposed the picture.

My friends used to dive under it. According to them there is a tunnel under the church. But this was later sealed. According to them there is a catacomb under the church.

Maybe this fueled the legend of Oro. Oro is a legendary giant fish that allegedly live under a tunnel under the church. This tunnel leads from under the church to the Macabalan Wharf/Pier. The fish is also allegedly golden. And when ever the fish move this causes an earthquake. And that every year it ask for a sacrifice of human life and in fact the river take at least one life every year.
