Zapote Bridge: A Timeless Landmark of Philippine History and Heritage
Nestled at the crossroads of Las Piñas in Metro Manila and Bacoor in Cavite, the Zapote Bridge stands as a silent yet powerful witness to the nation’s struggles and triumphs. Built in 1817 under the leadership of Don Agustin Dela Cruz and through the initiative of Padre Diego Cera of the Augustinian Order, this historic stone arch bridge is more than just an infrastructure marvel—it is a bridge to the past, where pivotal battles shaped the course of Philippine history.
