Pardo Cebu City
The location of this set of photos were taken in the area of Sto. Tomas de Villanueva Parish in Pardo, Cebu City. Full name of Pardo is “El Pardo” meaning grayish brown in Spanish.
Sto. Tomas de Villanueva Parish.
Closer view of Sto. Tomas de Villanueva Parish. There’s an “all seeing eye” in the circle window. The origin of that symbol is pagan.

Same here. Salamat kaayo sa mga hulagway. I grew up in Pardo but never got the chance to take some pictures. This may be the modern Pardo not the once I used to know but it still make me nostalgic remembering my elementary and high school days.

Hi Cebuano! You said: “Closer view of Sto. Tomas de Villanueva Parish. There’s an “all seeing eye” in the circle window. The origin of that symbol is pagan.” is not correct. The Triangle with the all seeing eye is basically Christian Symbolism not pagan. I just wonder when this church was built? I browsed through the net but there are no indications I found.

Hi Noel, any symbolism is of pagan origin, in the old testament God prohibits any image to represent him.
