A well-preserved Spanish colonial mansion constructed largely of wood, set in a pleasant, manicured garden. The lower floor has a collection of old tools, and an A/C room that has changing displays such as art exhibitions. The more interesting upstairs level was the former living quarters of the Gorordo family. It features lovely carved wooden furniture and a wide patio. The kitchen is particularly interesting, as it contains a traditional dirt stove, a wooden food safe, and a traditional dish drying rack fitted to the outside of the window.
The Casa Gorordo Museum is a historic heritage house museum located in the Parian district of Cebu City, Philippines. Constructed in the 1850s, the structure encapsulates the 19th and early 20th-century domestic lifestyle of elite families in Cebu.
