RIZAL PARK

Today, Jula visited Rizal Park for the first time.





Rizal Park is located in Manila, Philippines. The park was first called BAGUMBAYAN meaning New Town during Spanish era then later known as LUNETA because the area was shaped like a small moon (lunette). It is now called RIZAL PARK in commemoration of Dr. Jose P. Rizal (Philippine National Hero); this is where the execution took place on December 30, 1896.
