Santo Niño

The Santo Niño is a Roman Catholic embodiment of the Infant Jesus or in other words Jesus as a child. It's the oldest catholic relic brought by Magellan in 1521.

There are many myths about the

 young Jesus. When the Spaniards came to Cebu 1565 (after Magellan died) they destroyed the whole city but somehow the figure of Santo Nino (which was given by Magellan) was found unscathed in a burnt-out dwelling...

 miraculous! Other folklore describe a disappearing of the figure during the night or that the statue has dirty shoes in the morning even though it was cleaned before.

Since then it serves as a patron saint of Cebu and it can still be seen today in every house, car, jeep, literally in every corner of the city! 

But also in Davao I saw this jeepney drayber who had a picture of Jesus and a figure of him as Santo Niño instead of a working dashboard...
