Mancao Ancestral House
By: Alexis Red L. Saranza

The Mancao Ancestral Home in Carcar has been around since 1932, the house has been rebuilt to its original form.

The house was built during the America era and was built by one of Carcar's prominent families, the house has a big living room downstairs and in the middle of the room there is an old organ, and then the house has a wooden staircase that leads to another living room upstairs and a few bedrooms.

The house has large windows and balcony doors because it was built all the way back before air conditioning.
