The 117-Year Journey of the Balangiga Bells | From War Trophy to Homecoming

Описание: For over a century, the Balangiga Bells were silent in their homeland. Taken as war trophies during the Philippine–American War in 1901, they became symbols of both victory and loss. After 117 years, they finally returned to Samar in 2018 — carrying with them a story of courage, resilience, and national pride.
