    Fort Santiago in Intramuros was the site where Philippine national hero Jose Rizal was imprisoned just before his execution. Rizal was held at the fort's barracks from November to December 1896 and was sentenced to death for his role in revolution against Spanish rule. He was then marched from Fort Santiago to Bagumbayan Field, where he was executed by firing squad on December 30, 1896. The author chose to discuss Fort Santiago because it was where Rizal was imprisoned after fighting for Philippine independence, demonstrating Rizal's courage and sacrifice for his country's freedom from colonial rule.

    Title: Fort Santiago in Intramuros

    Narrative:
    1. What important event in Rizal’s life held in the location/place?
    • Fort Santiago earned a fearsome reputation among Filipinos because it kept
    Philippine national hero Jose Rizal just before his execution. The fort is now a
    memorial to its most famous prisoner, the Philippine national hero Jose Rizal. His
    statue is located in the plaza's heart. Jose Rizal was imprisoned in the Fort Santiago
    barracks on the western side of Plaza de Armas from November 3 to December 29,
    1896, and sentenced to death for his role in a brewing revolution against Spanish
    rule. Rizal was marched from Fort Santiago through Postigo Gate to Bagumbayan
    Field (the site of today's Rizal Park) and executed by firing squad on December 30,
    1896.
    2. Why did you choose such location/place and what thus the pictures mean in appreciating
    Rizal life as a youth?
    • I chose Fort Santiago because it was here that Rizal was imprisoned after fighting
    for our country against colonizers.
