A lively text recounts how European culture was transported in the 16th century by an expanding Spanish empire. Along with Christianity, the Spanish brought modern city planning and construction with stone. Today's Philippine church and society reflect many imported traditions which, over the centuries, blended with indigenous Filipino culture and many imported Asian influences as well.
