Baldomero Aguinaldo Shrine
The Baldomero Aguinaldo Shrine is a single-detached house built by Gen. Baldomero Aguinaldo, cousin of Gen. Emilio Aguinaldo during the American Colonial Period in 1906 at Binakayan, Kawit, Cavite. Baldomero held several positions at the revolutionary government during the early 1900s. He became the head of the Kawit Chapter of the Katipunan, President of the KKK Magdalo Council, and Secretary of the Treasury in the 1897 Biak-na-Bato Republic. Also, he became the Secretary of War and Public Works after the establishment of the First Philippine Republic by Emilio Aguinaldo.
==Architectural features==
The house of Gen. Baldomero Aguinaldo is a two-storey house with blue-green and white paint finish and simple decorative details. The lower ground floor or ''bodega'' which is intended to be partly closed serves as the working area. Stairs leads up to the living room, or''sala'', facing in front of the street. It is a well-ventilated space due to provision of three windows at each side. There are two sets of windows: the outer set made out of large glass panes while the inner set composed of fixed wooden blinds made out of Philippine hardwoods, ''molave'' and ''narra''. Also, these windows have openings below its window sills, also called as ''ventanillas''. Located between floor and the window sill, these openings provide additional inlet and outlet of air inside the second floor.〔
Aside from the living room, the second floor consists of two bedrooms, kitchen, and dining area, or ''comedor''. A passageway, leading towards the bedrooms, or the ''zaguan'', contains some of the memorabilia from Gen. Baldomero Aguinaldo, books of the municipal library, a history exhibit, and an arrangement of early to mid-20th century household items such as an upright piano. The bedrooms have iron bedsteads from the 1930s. The dining area, or ''comedor'', could accommodate ten guests. It features pieces of furniture such as bentwood Thonet "Vienna" chairs, a dish rack, or ''vajillera'', for china and glass wares, and a stuffed deer head on the wall. Built outside the ''comedor'' is a long outside shelf, or ''banguerra'' used for drying table ware. The flooring of the kitchen is made out of bamboo slats which is useful for both ventilation and easy cleaning. The bathroom and toilet are off a porch at the rear side of the house.〔
