New Government Center An elementary buddy invited me to join her in Bacolod last year. We met on a Friday evening in McDonalds Colon and took our dinner before we went to Cebu North Bus Terminal . RORO buses going to Bacolod City can be found in both Cebu South and North bus terminals but trips are more frequent in the latter. The bus departed at 2 AM and arrived in Toledo City at 4 AM.  We boarded in our decks for the boat trip going to San Carlos City. We arrived in San Carlos at 6 AM and rode the bus again going to Bacolod via El Salvador. We arrived in Bacolod City past 9 AM already and checked in at East Square Inn . We booked through booking.com because the booking website does not require a credit card for us to reserve. The hotel has good reviews too. We had a good stay except for the TV that was not functioning. The inn is walking distance to the city's entertainment and restaurant hubs.  We arrived in Bacolod City late so we were not able to go and se...

Bohol is one of the provinces in the Central Visayas region and is the island facing the east coast of Cebu. The island is surrounded by numerous islets. It is the third largest island in the country and is truly nature's bounty. If I have to rate Bohol from my own perspective, I would rate this island near to a perfect score because there's so much more on this island that one can experience. Chocolate Hills in Carmen The Chocolate Hills Probably Bohol's top tourist destination, a geological formation scattered in the middle of the island. This unique natural wonder captured the interest of geologists, tourists, and travelers alike.

The cruise fee already includes a buffet meal for lunch and an enjoyable cultural show. The Hanging Bridge Loboc River ...
