Iloilo City has 6 districts and Arevalo is one of those districts. Last year, after attending the MassKara 2013 Festival in Bacolod City, we spent two days in Iloilo City. During our stay in Iloilo City, we managed to visit 10 churches, including the Sto. Niño de Arevalo Parish Church.
I later found out that the Sto. Niño de Arevalo is the 3rd oldest image of the Child Jesus (after the Sto. Niño of Cebu and Sto. Niño of Tondo).
The plaza of San Lorenzo Ruiz and San Pedro Calungsod, Filipino Saints.
