The Bayanihan building is among the oldest buildings in the city. It used to be a warehouse. When the Japanese invaders took over the city in World War II, the building served as the headquarters of the Kempetai, the ruthless and dreaded Japanese military police.
The building incurred a lot of damage during the war. It was rebuilt and transformed into a hotel. Then it became a commercial building that housed offices and wagwagan shops.
