Binondo Church, also known as Minor Basilica of St.Lorenzo Ruiz and Our Lady of the Most Holy RosaryParish , is located in the District of Binondo, Manilafronting Plaza San Lorenzo Ruiz, in the Philippines. This church was founded by Dominican priests in 1596[1] to serve their Chinese converts to Christianity.[2] The original building was destroyed in 1762 by British bombardment. A new granite church was completed on the same site in 1852 however it was greatly damaged during the Second World War, with only the western facade and the octagonal bell tower surviving.

    From the outside, the church should be very historical, but the interior decoration has been replaced by modern style, especially the ceiling murals, like general paintings, lack a sense of history. Located in the district of Manila, the church is a rather beautiful church with a full mural on the ceiling and a garden foot square in front of the church.

    To ensure early arrival at the airport, today's event is simpler and the only day without rain. In the morning, I first visited the nearby Black Church, and I saw the morning prayers first taking water from the holy water tray held by the statue of the saint, and then some sitting in long wooden chairs or kneeling forward.

    The church of the Magnolia, commonly known as the Black Church, is also known as the Church of the Holy Lorenzo Ruiz, formerly known as the Church of the Virgin Mary, facing the square of the San Lorenzo Ruiz. It is also a scene of Chinatown. The church was founded in 1596 by Dominican priests to serve Chinese converts to Catholicism. San Lorenzo Ruiz ( Saint Lorenzo Ruiz) is a Chinese-Philippine mixed-race and the first saint in the Philippines, and was canonized by Pope John Paul II in 1987.
