Concepcion

AQUINO ANCESTRAL HOUSE

Mark Louie Macaspac

Aside from its places that can satisfy your stomach and eyes, Concepcion, Tarlac is also well-known because of the Balé Aquino, the Aquino Ancestral House. This is the place where the former senator, Benigno "Ninoy" Aquino Jr. grew, who was a mayor of this town, later became the governor of the province and eventually, a senator. The said house was built in 1939 with the help of wood craftsmen from Pampanga and renovated in 2011 in order for the public to appreciate its historical value

What makes it unique among the other ancestral houses that we all typically see? It is not as old as the ancestral houses in Vigan City which are commonly known as "Bahay na Bato" for they finished building it in 1938. (NewsGoth BT)
