Bagacay Point

This sight-seeing adventure was unplanned. It just happened in the late afternoon,  when I came to visit at the town of Consolacion, Cebu to drop-by some Imbutido to my best friend’s bro. Then out of curiosity, we decided to pay a short visit in “Bagacay Point.”The truth is, we really don’t know how to get there, we just simply asked people around Lilo-an, to give us some simple yet useful info’s…And we’re lucky not to get lost.

At last, we arrived in Brgy., Catarman Village, Lilo-an City,Philippines. Of course, taking pictures and observing this lovely-place is a must! At first glance, I was fascinated with uphill overlooking sides of the point that unveils the American colonial Architecture.

 

I really love the sky…

 

Very quite and relaxing...

So much for that, my day is complete again… I had fun ,joy and  memorable experience in Bagacay Point...

Monastery of Transfiguration

When it comes to ethereal healing wonders, one of the places that I highly recommend is the Monastery of Transfiguration. Suited in Barangay San Jose, Malaybalay City,Bukidnon, Philippines. It simply introduces you to Benedictine Monks of Bukidnon and the grandeur "pyramid" structure of MONASTERY OF TRANSFIGURATION.  

see the pyramid? It's not just only in Egypt...

 clean and quite...

Unquestionable, it provokes you to understand the profound beauty of spiritual meditation, serenity and the admiring verdure surroundings. It shares the splendid work of art by the country's national artist for Architecture Leandro Locin.

 One more thing, souvenir shop is widely open for you to buy some homemade delicious delicacies. (",
