EDSA Shrine
The EDSA Shrine (official name: Our Lady of Peace Quasi-Parish) is a small church of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Manila located at the intersection of Ortigas Avenue and Epifanio de los Santos Avenue (EDSA) in Quezon City. The shrine, built in 1989 originally to commemorate the memories of the First People Power Revolution and its peaceful outcome, stands on the site of two peaceful demonstrations that toppled Philippine presidents Ferdinand Marcos (the First People Power Revolution or EDSA I) and Joseph Estrada (the Second People Power Revolution or EDSA II).
