The Casa Gorordo Museum is another old house located along Lopez Jaena Street, right turn from Yap-Sandiego ancestral house and a few meters from it. The ancestral house was built sometime in the middle of 1800s by Alejandro Reynes y Rosales, which then bought in 1863 by a Spanish merchant under the name of Juan Isidro de Gorordo, hence the name. Casa Gorordo Museum is part of a rich heritage tour, following after the Colon Obelisk, Heritage of Cebu Monument and the Yap-Sandiego Ancestral House in the Parian District of Cebu City.

An abode in the late 17th century (1600s), the Yap-Sandiego Ancestral House in Cebu City is a must visit heritage site.

The Yap-Sandiego Ancestral House in Parian District of Cebu City is one of the oldest existing structural residential houses in the Philippines. It was constructed out of coral stones and woods, by a family of Chinese merchants sometime in the late 17th century. History tells that Parian was a busy barangay and the community houses were commonly designed with a second storey. To date, this “Balay nga Bato ug Kahoy” (house of wood and stones) stands still despite wrecks and fate of time at the corner of Mabini and Lopez-Jaena streets in Cebu City.
