Abstract
In the Philippines, tangible heritage is primarily composed of churches and houses called “Bahay Na Bato” (stone house). Sturdiness aided in preserving many of these structures; nevertheless, a number of their predecessor domestic architectures, made of light vernacular materials, called the “Bahay Kubo” (nipa house) still exist. A case in point is the Mabini House, now aptly addressed as the Mabini Shrine, in fitting reverence for a Philippine hero. For various reasons, the Shrine was relocated thrice, last of which was to the campus of the Polytechnic University of the Philippines. The study showed the viability of campus tourism through coexistence of learning institution and heritage destination.
