A little throw throwback to my last business trip to Cebu in June 2022. Took an early flight and arrived in Cebu in the morning. My luggage was delayed by the airlines so I kinda be able to travel baggage free. First off to Magellan's Cross in the morning so as to skip the crowd. The sun is out bright and the sky clear. First time in Cebu, this is not bad. A lot of street peddlers selling bottled water everywhere but overpriced, lucky I had my own water. #magellanscross #cebu

Cebu, located in the center of the Visayas, consists of 167 islands. It is the second avenue connecting the Philippines to the world. I recommend visiting Magellan's Cross, Santiago de Cuba and Carbon Market. From these local landmarks, you can get a taste of some unique Southeast Asian lifestyles.
