Cinco de Noviembre
Tigbauan Church
After Miag-ao and Guimbal, around 6 PM, we passed by the Tigbauan Church. I already paid my fare to Ilo-Ilo City but I was amazed by the facade of the church, so I immediately got off the jeepney and had a very short visit in the church. In front is an open plaza and is just a few meters away from Tigbauan Municipal Hall.
Laki Beach and Five Fingers, Bataan
The breathtaking photos of Laki Beach and Five Fingers in Bataan spread online; those were the reasons why we traveled to this place to celebrate JP's birthday. When we were searching for an itinerary online, we're kept on getting stories about Attorney. Who is Attorney?? Until now, already witnessed the beauty but the question remains unanswered. What we remember are the gift, wealth, magnificent, and spectacular landscape of this beach.
AFTER COVID-19: LIST OF BEST PLACES TO RELAX (BY REGION)
Marcos Ancestral House, Ilocos Norte
When I entered the house, the first thing that captured my eyes was the old wooden staircase on the right side of the ground floor, covered with red carpet. On the left side is the presidential table, with three armchairs. The management then provided mono-block chairs in front of the wide screen showing the history of the late President Ferdinand Marcos. Then, the whole second floor was divided into different panels.
Pabua's Cottages, Camiguin
We stayed at Pabua’s Cottages for 1,500 pesos overnight. The room is wide, with its own clean rest and shower room, TV with cable, terrace, and three queen-sized beds. Since we were on a tight budget, we went to the market and bought our supplies. Cooked, served with happiness and then rested. You can contact them at 09064152557 or 09173210449.
Manaragat Festival
It is an annual festivities celebrated for the whole month of August to pay homage to their Patrol Saint - Senyor Bartolome whose feast day falls on the 24th of the mentioned month. Catbalogan City celebrated its more than 400 years of establishment as the capital of the whole island of Samar; from a small fishing village in 1616 to a promising city in Eastern Visayas. Most of all, this festival is an ongoing call for people to remain resilient despite the odds and to keep moving forward.
Balay Negrense
Balay Negrense is just one of the century old houses along Cinco de Noviembre Street, Silay City. This street is remarkable because of the historical value that transpires to the people. Its name is a Hiligaynon phrase; Negrense refers to the people living in the province of Negros and Balay or a House.
Kawa Hot Bath, Antique
Kawa Hot Bath is prominent and one of the must-tried in Antique. Most of the mountain resorts offering this kind of service are situated in Tuno, Municipality of Tibiao, 30 to 40 minutes travel from Culasi, Antique. It is an old style of warm bath that uses a “Kawa” or a gigantic wok that serves as a bathtub. Instead of using a heater, wood is being used to create a fire to heat up the water and then sprinkled with ornamental and medicinal plants for a relaxing experience and for fairer skin. La Escapo Mountain Resort is the perfect spot to experience this because of its geographical location. Not only that, extreme water tubing can also be tried.
