Here’s a glimpse of the New Leyte Capitol Building located within a 14-hectare property in Palo, Leyte as of March 2022.

The construction of the P800-million building started on Jan. 21, 2020 after the old capitol sustained cracks following the magnitude 6.5 earthquake that shook Leyte and Samar on April 27, 2019. Storm surge also hit the building when Super Typhoon Yolanda struck the city on Nov. 8, 2013.
