Journey to the Past: Jose R. Gullas Halad Museum
This is one of my favorite visits during the Gabii sa Kabilin tour. A musically-themed museum that pays homage to Cebu and it's musical heritage. Inaugurated on January 12, 2010 and was finally open for public viewing by February 2, 2010.

Halad means offering in the local language, quite fitting for the place is dedicated to the founder's parents; Don Vicente and Inday Pining Gullas. Both of which founded the University of the Visayas in Cebu. This houses a collection of memorabilias of Cebuano composers and artists in the 20th century from ancient musical instruments, sheets and of course long-playing records.
And here is a snippet of a working phonograph.
