Barangay Beatles

Forget Abbey Road, for the real road to Beatlemania can be found here in the Philippines.
Located at Fugoso St (Manila) 
cor Kusang Loob St, lies an alleyway aptly called:
"BRGY. BEATLES".
            The entry point looks pretty normal enough!
Just your typical barangay entrance, I guess?
Decorated with your typical unmovable and unpushable "sirang Mitsubishi L300" and your somewhat typical murals about sceneries and such.

BORING! 
Been there, done that!
But that's where you're wrong!
After the somewhat bland looking entrance, you are greeted upon with rows after rows of brightly decorated murals.
Most of which were designed after famous Beatles album covers or tour posters.
With the exception of two Tintin murals
and weirdly enough, one Van Gogh self-portrait.
This alleyway also houses a school of rock.
But apparently, no Mr. Ned Schneebly in sight since the said school is currently closed.

This "brutally honest" warning for would be vandals
and this poorly drawn Naruto fanart.
Thus conclude our rather short but very meaningful tour of Brgy. Beatles.
Join us again next time as we find more unique things on the city streets of the Philippines.
Things out of the ordinary but definitely something we could all be proud of.
So hurray, for your unconventional source of Pinoy Pride!
Mabuhay ka, Brgy. Beatles!
