Carmen

Round and About

Cebu has had a lot of improvements way before(or 10 years ago perhaps) I have come to notice the infrastructures and new establishments being constructed, a look of change that somehow made me happy. Happy because along with the improvements, constructions I foresee people who needed jobs can take advantage of this. Kinda worried also because along with this, will surely affect the environment, let us just pray for that not to happen.

Nonetheless, my vacation was worth it and I had the chance to take pictures of this place on the northern part of Cebu where our batch held our mini reunion, Durano Ecopark and Spring Resort at Carmen, Cebu..

 

TO THE POOL AREA
ENJOYING THE VIEW
A CREEK JUST BESIDE THE POOL

The kids love the pool so much, they don’t wanna take themselves out of the water hehe

I LOVE THIS WOODEN COTTAGE


We travelled for hours just to get through our destination. We had to do a series of stopovers for our “baons”and short shoppings. All in all, the trip was fun and another thing to remember!

MOTHER MARYS SANCTUARY
(MARIAN CHURCH in SIMALA)
 
Decided to bring the whole family to Sibonga Cebu for a visit to Simala Church. To get there, we have to take the route from SRP and travel time takes lesser than usual.
 
Was astonished of the great architectural details of this somewhatlike castle sanctuary.
The stairs to the Church
Isn’t it amazing?

The colored candles represents what kind of petition you are about to ask

 

 

Devotees come for thanksgiving, petitions, and intercessions of the Blessed Mother Mary. Inside you can read and feel the inspiration from the people healed by their faith. Memorabilia are also available to those who want souvenirs(rosary beads, prayer booklets, bible etc.) from the place. Proceeds of this will be handed for the food and lodgings of the monks.

Located at the Marian Hills of Lindogon, Simala in Sibonga Cebu, you can get yourself a habal habal  ride in Sibonga and negotiate yourself to take you there.

Wear decent clothes when you go to this holy place. Tops and sleeveless, shorts are not allowed here.
