Cebuanos are undoubtedly talented and creative, and it is very fitting that Cebu will be blessed with a specialty art store to realize our young artists’ aspirations – Art Bar, the famous arts and crafts chain.

Lake Pingganon is definitely one of Toledo’s gems. It is a secluded lake that is surrounded by mountains. At first sight, the lake could not be spotted but at a closer look on the road side, this majestic lake can be seen.

The lake is also known as “Lake Bensis” primarily because it was claimed to be situated at Sitio Pingganon, Brgy. Sinsin, Cebu. Formerly, the site was a mining pit that was then closed. Over time, the area turned out to be a verdant and Eden-like lake.

Lake Pingganon, as described by those who have visited it, was indeed a sight to behold. They said that the beauty of the lake is mesmerizing. The fresh water of the lake made it crystal clear, that you could almost see the bottom of the lake. Matched with fresh breeze, being in the area will surely provide you that much needed break away from the city.

Most of the people who visit the site are mountaineers and campers. Surrounded by mountains, the lake is the perfect swim after a few hours of trekking. Trekkers can camp out beside the lake, as there are spaces that are suitable for setting up tents.

Pit Senyor! The Queen of all festivals is fast approaching.

The entry of “ber” months may remind the people that Christmas is near but to the Cebuanos, it reminds us of the three big celebrations.

It reminds us that Christmas is coming, next is New Year, and then the month-long celebration of the biggest and grandest festival of the miraculous image of Sto. Niño, the Sinulog which is celebrated every 3rd Sunday of January. For the new year, the grand Sinulog Festival will be on January 19, 2020.

What makes the Sinulog memorable and much awaited by everyone is everything about it; the solemnity and strong faith felt it in every novena especially in the grand procession, the music, the beat, the dance, and the smiling people. Nothing beats the feels of this celebration.
