MANILA - The Philippine Embassy in Spain on Saturday released a virtual walking tour featuring places frequented by Jose Rizal during his stay in the Spanish city of Madrid.

The video, which follows the format of a walking tour, features 15 places around Madrid, frequented by Rizal and other Filipinos during the 19th century.

Ambassador Philippe Lhuillier had previously considered producing an audio guide for visitors in Madrid, similar to the ones in museums, but given the context of the pandemic, the idea was transformed into a video tour instead. "It involved a great deal of work, as our contributors can confirm, including writing subtitles in three languages , researching supporting documents, filming additional footage, and recording accompanying audio for the tour," the Embassy added.

"We are also proposing the idea to our colleagues in other Philippine embassies and consulates, which we hope they will consider, as Rizal's travels through Europe were an integral part in the formation of his thoughts and ideals as our national hero," it said.
