The Beauty of Siquijor

Aswang, Kulam, etc? These words are for the ignorant minds. Siquijor is the place where white sands, delicious seafood meals and great sceneries  are found. Its antiquity are well preserved and its generous and hospitable people who lived in makes the place more worth visiting for. :)

Welcome to Siquijor!
at the Back is the St. Francis of Assisi Church. located at Siquijor, Siquijor. The very first church you will see upon arriving in the Island of Siquijor from the Dumaguete pier.

Inside the St. Francis of Assisi Church. as what I have said earlier, the antiquity of such place are so well preserved. from the Spanish era up to the present.

The Famous Bell Tower of St. Francis of Assisi Church.
Up until now, this Bell tower is still in good use. but only the ministers of the said church can go inside.

At San Isidro Labrador Parish Church. Located at Lazi, Siquijor. this church is the oldest church in the entire island of Siquijor.
I was not able to go inside and see what beauty awaits. But, they said that the things that are in use in this church while having a mass is that of the things that are used way back the Spanish era. the long tables, chalice etc.

I have been  to many places in the island. The Mount Bandilaan Eco Park where the locals of the island will climb up for a PANATA during the Holy Week specifically on Holy Thursdays. They call it TUNGAS a local term for climb. The Oldest Balite Tree with its fish spa along with it, The San Juan Spring Park where you can swim all day long for free etc. sad to say my pictures from the above mentioned places were missing.

You CAN tour the whole island for a short span of time. but you CANNOT leave each place with just on click of the camera. :)

So come, visit  and see the beautiful Island of Siquijor!
