Who is blessed Takayama Ukon and why is he a saint?
Blessed Takayama Ukon was a Roman Catholic kirishitan daimyō, martyr, and a candidate for canonization for sainthood in the Roman Catholic Church.
He was dedicated to his faith and even gave up his position as a daimyō as a result. He is also the only daimyō to be buried on foreign soil.

Bastión de San Francisco de Dilao: Named Dilao because it faced the district of Dilao, a Japanese enclave, east of the walls. Dilao’s original site was probably where San Marcelino Street is. The district was transferred to Paco, and residences demolished after the British had left Manila in 1764.

Intramuros [32] (Latin: within the walls) is the historic center and oldest district of Manila, the capital city of the Philippines.

Baluarte De San Francisco De Dilao
* * *
Built-in 1592 by the Spanish government to deter threats and invasion by other countries. Renovated in 1622. The area was much larger than what it is right now, the area that you'll see is the restored structure, for the whole area was destroyed during the American liberation of Manila from the Japanese occupation in 1845.

---Except for a small open stretch near the River Pasig, Intramuros is completely surrounded by the massive stone walls that gave the district its name. Starting from the northwestern end of the fortifications and moving anti-clockwise
