Day 3...September Cebu


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
