Philippines is a wonderful place to live especially here in Visayas region particularly here in Cebu. Cebu has a lot to offer best beaches, foods are great, weather are fine, more tourist spot and best of all the people are friendly. Are there any places would you like to recommend? Im sure there are lot.

I recommend Mindanao. Especially here in Bukidnon. There are lots of beautiful places here that anyone can tour. See for yourself the beauty and nature of Bukidnon.

I'd like to recommend my province, the Bicol region. I've heard in the news that it's the 13th poorest provinces in the Philippines but now it managed to be one of the best tourist spot! There you can go to Caramoan Island with excellent beach resorts and hotels; the Mt. Isarog National Park; the well-known Mayon Volcano in Albay; the popular Penafrancia Festival in Naga City, and the newly discovered surfing place at a white beach at Catanduanes which is attracting tourists from all over the world! I'm just proud of my province!

That's a beautiful place to be. I hope I can visit your place and tour me around. I've never been to Bicol region especially the historical place the Mayon Volcano and that newly discovered white beach that is really interesting. I consider putting Bicol region as one of my toplist vacation.

Hi Jackie! I think the best vacation I had was in Bohol. The beach there was superb! The white sand is perfect, the water is crystal clear, I can actually see the star fishes! And the Hinagdanan Cave was amazing! The water was so cold and clear and the stair was amazing. I wish I can go back there. I also like Baguio, I love the fresh strawberries and the cold weather. I've been there like twice only and I hope I can go back there when the weather is fine and there is no landslide. I also liked in Marinduque although I can't remember the place much, only that it is peaceful there and I loved the Bat Cave!

I think the Visayan region is the proclaimed winner in this aspect :) They have Boracay, Cebu and many more. They have wonderful beaches too, white sand and the water is pristine. I just hope that they will be able to preserve these natural beauties :)

The best vacation I ever had was when I went to Pangasinan with my friends. It was my first time to go Island hopping. Then we went to Marcos Island, where there was a cave. Everyone dared to jump. It was my first time jumping from the top of the cave towards the water. It was one of those memorable vacations for me this year.

For me, Ilocos is a great tourist spot because of the numerous tourist attractions in Ilocos Sur and Ilocos Norte. Ilocos Sur boasts of Sta. Maria Church a centuries old church nestled on top of a hill. It is really so picturesque! Others significant churches are the Vigan Cathedral, Sinait Church, Bantay Church. A visitor of Ilocos Sur must not miss its various museums and ancestral homes. Some of this province's tourist spots are included in the UNESCO World Heritage List. A walk around the Heritage Village will lead you to Plaza Burgos, Plaza Salcedo and Leona Florentino house and statue and, of course, the famous and much photographed Calle Crisologo. Don't forget to take a calesa ride and ask the "kutsero" to take you to the local jar makers - Pagburnayan. There is more to see there but I also want to tell you bit about Ilocos Norte. Up north is the province of Ilocos Norte. The landmarks and attractions of Ilocos Norte include: Juan Luna Shrine, Paoay Church, Marcos Mausoleum and Museum, St. William's Cathedral and Sinking Bell Tower, Malacanang of the North, Badoc Shrine, Pasuquin saltmakers, Sta. Monica Church. Going further north to Pagudpud will allow you to take side trips to the windmills of Bangui, the Bojeador lighthouse, Patapat viaduct, Paraiso ni Anton, and many more. Are you convinced now that a visit to Ilocos province could be a really memorable vacation?
