The Chimney


The Chimney, that stands 35-feet, is the centerpiece of the Pison Rotunda. It was built to honor the late Donato Pison Sr. The design around the chimney depicts sugar production, rice production, fishponds, and salt making - the industries that the Pison family started. This chimney can be found at Barangay San Rafael in Manduriao in Iloilo City in the Philippines.

In the picture, the chimney, serve as foreground for the pyrolympics, an annual fireworks competition that is held during the Dinagyang week.

How to Get There:
1. From the airport ride a van to SM City.
2. From SM City ride a jeepney that goes to City Proper and ask the jeepney driver to drop you to the intersection to Barangay San Rafael or to Ateneo Iloilo. The Chimney can be seen from the intersection. Your jeepney ride from SM City would be less than five minutes so be alert.
