The Crystal Palace, which was built for the exhibition, was different from others

because it was made of iron and glass. Many goods were sent to the exhibition
from various parts of the world, as well as machinery. So many visitors travelled
by boat and train that it was possible to build colleges and museums from the
profits. After the exhibition, the Crystal Palace was moved to South London, where
it remained one of the most famous buildings until it was burnt down in 1936.

The Art Capital of the Philippines

Last Saturday, I visited a modern art exhibition in Angono, Rizal. I didn't know the
exact place, so I searched, and that was how I got there. When I arrived at the art
exhibition, some artists were there, and I was not surprised when I saw famous
artists because Angono, Rizal, is the Art Capital of the Philippines. Because of
that, the exhibition attracted large crowds.

My first impressions of the artists were amusing because they accommodated the
crowd at the exhibit. The things on display have different titles and stories. I
continued walking around the exhibition hall. Then I saw the exhibit that I liked
best, and it was a painting titled A Boy Under the Tree of Limuel Blanco. He is the
grandson of the famous painter Jose Blanco. I was very happy that I enjoyed the
exhibition, but I was tired at the end of the day.
