Notes
Military personnel walk around San Agustin Church and bell tower, located inside the historic walled city of Intramuros in Manila. After two previous churches on this site were destroyed, the Augustinians approved designs for a church to be made this time of brick and of stone. The techniques of cutting stone and of mixing lime with sand allowed a different design for the fourth church on the site - a church that still stands 400 years later.
