BASCO, Batanes- The first national museum in Batanes located at the old Long Range Naval (LORAN) station in Barangay Imnajbu, Uyugan, 25 kilometers south of Basco, was inaugurated last January 7. | |||
Dr. Ana Labrador of the national museum in Manila said that establishing a museum in Batanes is a pride of the province and a jumping point of visitors to visit a place. | |||
She also said that the function of a museum is to give information, give access to exhibition of artifacts that may be supported by a publication, programs of series of lectures, seminars and other activities. | |||
“The museum is expected to draw tourists because it is educational, it allows viewers to learn how people survived in the past,” Labrador said. | |||
During the groundbreaking ceremonies, a mini exhibit of local artifacts was also held which made the event more colorful. | |||
A team from the national museum in Manila, who conducted ocular inspection last October, said the rehabilitation and restructuring would take about a year which is why the anticipated opening of the national museum is targeted in 2013. | |||
