Santo Cristo de Longos

Attributed to the image of the crucified Christ that was allegedly retrieved by a Chinese laborer in 1704 from a neighborhood well at Barrio Longos. The man miraculously regained his speech as he announced his discovery.

He entrusted the image to the Dominican priests who called it the Santo Cristo de Longos. Today, it is still venerated at Binondo church while a streetside shrine marks the spot where the well used to be located.
