Balanga | The Divine Mercy Shrine

The Divine Mercy Shrine is a tall and quite impressive Catholic monument that can be found in the City of El Salvador, in the Misamis Oriental Province, within the Republic of the Philippines.Being mistaken constantly with the El Salvador nation in Central America, the El Salvador City in the northern part of the Mindanao Island has gained a great popularity with the Divine Mercy Jesus statue that has 15 meters (50 feet) in height and overlooks the large 9 hectares (22 acres) of land.The statue itself is depicting Jesus Christ giving a blessing to the visitors coming here, with two “beams” of hope and faith coming out from his heart. Those are also constructed with stairs so that people would be able to come as close as possible to the most sacred heart of Christ.
