Pagawan is also a place part of Manticao, Misamis Oriental and from Barangay Poblacion, we need to travel at about 20 minutes before we arrived the place. This sanctuary and museum is near at the National Highschool and Manticao river. Museum de Manticao is quitely far from the National road and the public transportation fair cost up to 20 Pesos each.

I really amazed of the place when I arrived here and the first thing I saw was this big and huge wood with a lettering at the middle. It writes the name of the place using a white paint and the wood is painted with color brown paint so that the designs will be highlighted and easily seen by many.

Because this is also a museum place, it is expected to lots of alibata or old Filipino writings and letters here just like this one. This place is one of the waiting area, and it is made of Natural wood with metal on its chair's legs to make it more attractive.

This unique swings made of rattan and other flexible materials is very attractive. We can seat in here and do a swing type and it was placed near at the waiting areas.

This are some of the wonderful place inside of the sanctuary and Museum. This Alibata old letters written at the top of the archs says about the collection of wild plants and durable trees just like Molave. Inside of this area contains more different kinds of trees and the most amazed of it are it already given by its names and description through putting some short information about the plants and trees.

This are the tags nailed on each kind of trees and this will help so that the visitors will know about the names, uses and how good those trees in terms of constructing topics.

This place contains a butterfly Garden and as I observed during my travel and visits, I've seen 8 butterflies flying around the place. This kind of plants is what we called Water lilies and it was placed at the big couldron so that it will become attractive to see.

This is the reception hall on which many kinds of important meetings and gatherings are being done in here. This hall is made of bamboos and lumbers and inside of it are very spacious and relaxing because of the ceiling fan. The floors is made of wood and decorated with colorful curtains.

Native Houses:

There are lots of native houses found here in Mindanao and the owner of this place decided to built some of the native houses just like here in the picture I captured. It is made of bamboos and woods and all of it are built in hanging type, and as the historian says, it keeps the native people safe from wild animals stamped during that time. That is why the house was completely built in hanging.

Old Jars:

Ancient people also used jars to store more water, vinegar, wine or fruits and this is a kind of an old jars called Tadyao.

Old Type Writer and Tv Case and Abacus:

That, time there is no any computers used to type some documents instead people used type writer just like this one, each pieces of the sharp metals contains lots of inks so that the letters can mark in the paper. Tv case is very popular in old times including abacus, the first calculator used by Greeks on the olden times.

This Prototype of jeepney represent the simple transportation here in Manticao until today, this is one of the most old way of vehicle used to transport from one place to another. This bicycle is invited 1950 and I also really amazed of it.

Old Bells, Glass Jar, Buli Hats, Water Pump and Hanging lamp:

I really amazed of this pieces of an old and very antique things recovered here in the town and most of it are used for agriculture and home uses.

A Very Old Mortar and pestle Things:

In modern Time, we called it Mortar and pestle but in local term we called it Lusungan. This will be used to crush fruits or any hard materials without any hassle situations and it is made of woods.

Old Pictures of the second World War:

There are also some of the pictures about the past World War happens in the country particularly here in Mindanao, and those people who fought for the freedom is what they called Guirila Fighters.

Bone Thing, and An Old Japanese Things:

This bone of the cow's head is also displayed and exhibit in here represents the primary income of all people in Manticao starting the old days until today. Also this Japanese army Suit and some things used for navigation is also in here here.

An old sewing Machine, Bolo and Suitcase:

In local term, we called it Malita a kind of suitcase used to stored more clothes if we want to travel. This is also one of the uses on that day and bolo is very traditional things used for farming.

A 110 Year Old Painting:

This painting is very unique and it is very old thing including this carved wood. The owners says that this painting and carved wood was belong to His Great, Great Grandparents and for me this is very expensive kinds of treasure.

There is also a bee farm in here, it already produced more honey thats is sold out to the market. This structure is where the bees lives and each box contains a HIVE on it.

I am very happy to have this place amd I am very thankful to the owner to have a full access exploring in the Museum de Manticao in Bird's Nest sanctuary.
