    The Yap-San Diego Ancestral House is a 300-year-old ancestral home in Cebu, Philippines that has been restored by its owner Val. It was originally part of a cluster of stone-walled, wood-paneled ancestral homes in the historic Parian District of Cebu that were home to founding families. Val converted the home into a lifestyle museum to showcase his collection of antiques and preserve the original wood-paneled second floor, tiled roof, and other features of the ancestral structure. Photos show interior areas like the sala, comedor, and silong that contain antique furnishings and give a glimpse of life in a traditional Filipino ancestral home.

    PHILIPPINE ARCHITECTURE

    Yap San Diego Ancestral House

    BY: ARNOLD A. DABAY


    For centuries, the Parian District of
    Cebu was home to the crème de la
    crème and founding families of the
    Queen City. Clustered in this historic
    district were the stoned-wall ground
    floor, wood-paneled second floor and
    tiled-roof ancestral houses. Sadly, only a
    few of these antique structures survive
    to this day or at least have been restored
    with their original configurations intact.
    One of them is the Yap-San Diego
    Ancestral House.
    Val restored his ancestor’s 300 hundred year old ancestral house
    and converted it into a lifestyle museum to showcase his
    teeming collection of antiques.
