One of the things I wanna do before I die is to roam around the country. I've been to Ilocos, Zambales, Batangas, Baguio, Guimaras Island, Iloilo, Bohol and one of my favorite places, Boracay. To continue my journey, the recent place I've been was... CEBU.
It's my second time to be in this province and I must say that I fell in love with this place. Cebu is rich in culture, heritage, food, beach and of course, history.
Day 1:
My sister and I arrived in Cebu around 10:10 in the morning and went straight to our hotel. We booked our first day of stay in Cebu at Hotel Stella. It is one of the most recommended place to stay for tourist with limited budget. It offers affordable rates but classy and elegant ambiance as well. I must say that this was a good choice.

On our first lunch at Cebu, we opted to eat at Golden Cowrie. We don't know what to expect, however, we were not disappointed. It was a good choice, actually. We loved the food, especially, the Baked Scallops.
We went straight to Crown Regency Hotel after lunch to experience the Skywalk Adventure as well as the Edge Coaster. It was a blast experience! The feeling of being at the top of the world. :)
Day 2:
We checked out at Hotel Stella at 8am and started our city day tour. I made a car service reservation 2 days before we arrived in Cebu. Our driver/tour guide - Michael was friendly and very accommodating. We've been to different tourist spots in Cebu - Taoist Temple, The Tops, Karsel sa Sugbo, Heritage of Cebu Monument, Magellan's Cross, Sto. Nino Church, Fort San Pedro, Lapu-lapu Shrine and Villa Eco (Butterfly Sanctuary). We had lunch at the famous Casa Verde. The food was awesome and cheap! Super delicious! It was really an amazing day. On the afternoon, Michael dropped us at Imperial Palace for our 2 days stay at the said resort.

It was my sister's birthday and spent most of our time at the shore. It's all about the beach, sun, food and people. Imperial Palace offers the finest food but pricey. Well, of course, what to expect in a five star resort/hotel.
