I've been hearing a lot of great comments and reviews about one of Philippines' largest provinces, the Queen City of the South, Cebu. I can't believe that throughout my 20 plus years of existence, it's only now that I got the chance to step foot in the Cebuano ground.

Along with three of my friends, we traveled around the city looking like foreigners, stopping by at every corner of the city to take photographs, get along with the people and their traditions and have a taste of their delicacies. We also met a couple of friends because of the Basic Photography workshop that our group conducted during our visit.

We stayed at the luxurious and popular white sand resort and spa of Movenpick Hotel (former Hilton) and there, we also made friends with the sun and the shore which was hell relaxing and fun. What I like about the resort is its relaxing ambiance, because unlike Boracay, there are not too many people here, which is perfect if you are looking for a place to unwind and relax.

Overall, my first time Cebu experience was pure fun. And I can't wait to visit the province again! Here are some photos of Cebu's famous landmarks and traditions.
