We left Manila on a sunny Wednesday morning full of excitement and joy. Then, the weather changed from sunny to humid when we landed in Roxas City. It seemed that everyone was sweating profusely. Anyways, as i set foot at the airport, I was mesmerized by the angelic voices of the airport's singers in a beautiful Ilonggo song. On our way to my grand parents house, I can't help myself but to reminisce all the memories I have there. I paid a visit a year ago but I can't deny the fact it is getting more and more different each time. Perhaps its economy is boosting, lol. The proofs are the establishments that are growing abundantly in every street. Also, the locals or simply the Ilonggos are really approachable and friendly. The photo below were the people whom we've asked for directions that were really game posing on camera =)

During my stay, I had a chance to savor some of the province's delicacies that will make you crave and ask for more.

Roxas City is a medium size city but it offers what big cities like Manila can (even nature and other man made wonders). In fact, it is home to one of the historical churches like Saint Monica church in Panay, where the biggest bell in Asia and the third in the world can be found.

I seldom go here but i always find contentment each time i pay a visit. So, If you wish to experience and taste the abundance of marine life, beautiful nature, and an amazing history, go and visit the Philippines Sea Foods Capital of Roxas City. A place where everything is in its abundance!
