via Coconuts Manila, 31 January 2023: Authorities are seeking information on who damaged the Malagonlong Bridge in Tayabas.
Unidentified vandals destroyed a large portion of a Spanish-era bridge in Quezon province that was declared a national cultural treasure by the National Historical Commission of the Philippines and is one of the province’s main tourist attractions, authorities said.
The Malagonlong Bridge or Puerta de Malagonlong in Tayabas City was reportedly found to be desecrated when tourists visited the site with local guides this week. Authorities believe it may have been damaged using a sledgehammer.
