πΎ A Wheel That Carried History β¨
Long before modern machinery transformed Philippine agriculture, the Farming Kareta Roda played an essential role in farm life. These large, spoked wooden wheels were attached to sturdy carts typically pulled by carabaos, making them indispensable workhorses of pre-mechanized Philippine agriculture.
Expertly crafted by local karoseros, these wheels were built to withstand the demanding conditions of farm life in the early 1940s. Today, they stand as enduring symbols of Filipino craftsmanship, resilience, and the rich agricultural heritage of our country.
At 11th Street Bed and Breakfast Inn, we take pride in preserving this remarkable heritage artifact, allowing our guests to appreciate a piece of Philippine history and the craftsmanship that supported generations of hardworking Filipino farmers.
Every artifact in our collection has a story to tell, offering a glimpse into the traditions, ingenuity, and culture that continue to inspire us today.
