This is a cemetery. Manila Memorial Park, my lola is buried there. It's been a long time since I've been there. The structure you see there is the chapel patterned after praying hands. I believe the cemetery is located along South Superhighway somewhere, am I right? The local forummers could fill in more info.

It's located along Sucat Road I think. I remember enjoying a visit in this cemetery once cause there's a mini zoo inside this cemetery.
