Today is
our last day in Cebu City but before heading towards the airport after our hotel
check out, we go first to Mactan Shrine, Lapu Lapu City thru Grab booking.
Mactan
Shrine is a large open area where you can see the Mactan Shrine and read over
the Mactan battle depiction. You will really remember Cebu from history for this
Battle of Mactan when Ferdinand Magellan and his crew attacked Mactan Island
and Lapu-Lapu and his men fought back and defeated them. It is believed that
this place is where the battle took place and that the shrine was made in the
area where Ferdinand Magellan died during the battle.
I noticed
that most of the visitors in that area that day are foreigners in groups with
their tour guide, probably relaying the history that had taken place in the
area. Cebu is truly where fighters with great courage are born of.
I know that
there is more of Cebu and not just its city. Three days may not be enough and
actually it is the most relaxed province travel I had since I am with my
mother. We needed to travel in a slow pace and in return I am just making the
most of what is…the most important is that at least we have more time spent
together. It really takes time, treasure, effort to plan and travel.
I will
definitely go back to Cebu again and learn and explore more of this province.
Thank you Cebu City, for a taste of your goodness, rich heritage, works of art,
and your love of nature.
;D
