I ❤️ Temple of Leah - Cebu 2023 - 12-10-2023

Temple of Leah Cebu: A Glimpse of Grandeur Amidst Renovation
 
Nestled in the heart of Cebu, the Temple of Leah stands as a testament to love and grandeur. During my visit in 2023, the temple was undergoing some renovations, but that didn't overshadow the awe-inspiring architecture and the breathtaking view of Cebu City. Join me as I recount my experience exploring this remarkable site and how it became one of the highlights of my Cebu day tour.
 
As I approached the Temple of Leah, I couldn't help but be captivated by its impressive architecture. The grandeur of the structure, inspired by Roman and Greek architecture, was truly a sight to behold. Despite the ongoing renovations, the intricate details and the sheer scale of the temple left me in awe. But it wasn't just the architecture that stole the show; the panoramic view of Cebu City from the temple's vantage point was simply breathtaking. It offered a unique perspective of the city's skyline and added to the overall charm of the experience.
 
One aspect that made my visit to the Temple of Leah even more special was the fact that it is privately owned and open to tourists. I felt grateful to the owner for allowing visitors to experience the beauty and magnificence of the temple. It's not every day that you get the opportunity to explore a private property that holds such cultural and historical significance. The dedication and generosity of the owner in sharing this gem with the public added an extra layer of appreciation to the experience.
 
The Temple of Leah undoubtedly became one of the highlights of my Cebu day tour. Its unique blend of architectural splendor, cultural significance, and stunning views made it a must-visit destination. I highly recommend taking your time to soak in the beauty of the temple and capture as many memories as you desire. The tranquil atmosphere and the sense of awe that the temple evokes create a memorable experience that will stay with you long after you leave.
 
While the Temple of Leah left a lasting impression, it's worth noting that the subsequent destinations on my day tour were somewhat disappointing in comparison. The grandeur and charm of the temple set the bar high, making it challenging for the following stops to live up to the same level of excitement. However, I encourage you to embrace the uniqueness of each destination and find joy in the journey itself, even if some places may not meet your initial expectations.
My visit to the Temple of Leah in Cebu was a truly remarkable experience, despite the ongoing renovations. The impressive architecture, coupled with the panoramic views of Cebu City, made it a standout destination. I extend my gratitude to the private owner for allowing tourists to explore this cultural gem. If you're planning a visit to Cebu, make sure to include the Temple of Leah in your itinerary. Embrace the grandeur, take your time, and let the beauty of the temple leave an indelible mark on your journey through this vibrant city.

I ♥ Puting Buhangin Pagbilao - Quezon (2012) - 09/29/2012

Image
I always pray for good weather when planning an out-of-town trip, as a typhoon can easily disrupt carefully planned travels. Fortunately, when we visited Puting Buhangin in Pagbilao, Quezon, the weather remained clear. I had been longing to visit this place since last year, but unforeseen circumstances always led to cancellations. Growing up in Quezon province, I felt a deep connection to this destination and wanted to appreciate the beauty of my hometown.   Initially, I had planned a solo backpacking trip and shared my travel plans online out of excitement. That's when I received a message from Mac, who expressed curiosity about my travels. I proposed the idea of going together to Puting Buhangin to cut down on expenses. Without hesitation, Mac agreed to join me on this adventure.   On the day of the tour, heavy rain poured down, making me fear that the trip would once again be cancelled. I reached out to Mac via SMS to confirm if he still wanted to go. If he had changed his mind

I ♥ PMA BAguio City 12/12/2010

Philippine Military Academy (PMA) Baguio Philippine Military Academy (PMA) Baguio was the first tourist spot I visited in this humble city. I went there last 2008 with my college friends and I really enjoyed our short stay there. There is no restriction in visiting the area. However, due to its gaining popularity they implemented policies that may annoy some first time travelers.  All visitors entering PMA must have individual valid IDs. A person without a valid ID can't enter PMA. If you're in a group and you don't have ID, you will be instructed to get off the jeepney at the gate and wait for your companions with IDs while they're enjoying the tour. Also, wearing slippers is a big no-no when you wanted to enter its premises. Even though you are wearing your expensive flip-flops the security personnel won't show any mercy and you may be force to await your companion at the gate. They promote wearing shoes because people who wanted to visit the area shou

I ♥ Batis Aramin Lucban Quezon 03/13/2011

  Batis Aramin Lucban Quezon Batis Aramin Resort, Hotel and Adventure Camp is just one of the few resorts near my hometown Tayabas, Quezon. We went there when we visited the well-known Catholic Pilgrimage site called “Kamay ni Hesus” which lies on the foot of Mt. Banahaw last 2011. You won't be lost to find the place because it is just on the other side of the popular retreat camp Kamay ni Hesus which is located in Malupak, Lucban Quezon. We don't have enough money to pay the 100 pesos entrance fee but because we wanted to explore the place we just made an alibi to the security personnel that we just wanted to do an ocular visit and see if we wanted to stay. The security personnel was very kind and he let the 5 of us enter the vicinity we just left our ID's for record updating.  There were a lot of guess that time. I saw a lot of private cars with LaSalle University stickers probably they rented the place for retreat. I never expected the resort to be so beautif
