When people and nature work together

This century-old acacia tree outside the Marikina Footwear Museum was uprooted by a tornado in 2018. Instead of getting rid of it, the residents used bonsai techniques to revive and restore what remained. Today, new growths sprout from the trunk. For locals, the tree has come to symbolize resilience & survival. It's a reminder that whatever calamity we face, it's still possible to find new life.
