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 on the intersection of Ortigas Avenue and Epifanio de los Santos Avenue (EDSA) in Quezon City. The shrine, built in 1989 to originally commemorate the memories of the first People Power Revolution and the peaceful outcome of the said demonstration, stands on the reputed 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).

EDSA Shrine is part of the Ortigas Center, a complex of office buildings and commercial centers that occupy large tract lands in portions of Quezon City, Mandaluyong City and Pasig City.
