Apply for Visa

See this wonderful video to know about problems of visa application from India, especially Kolkata, Hyderabad and Chandigarh. If you apply from these cities, Pre-Arrival Registration (PAR) Process will be unsuccessful, like my application, inspite of visiting 44 countries. But there is nothing to worry about, still you will get visa. See this video

Ultimately I got visa by paying Rs 2300 approx.

This route forms a smooth southward loop, staying compact within the Intramuros area before heading out toward modern Manila — ensuring no retracing of roads.

Day 7: Rizal Park & Cultural Manila (24 Oct)

Same as above (do the balance)

Time: ~ 25-35 mins if traffic isn’t very bad.

Since I’ll be doing a mostly walking tour based from your hotel at 101 F. Gonzales Street, Capitol Site, Cebu City, the smart thing is to focus on Cebu City proper (the historical core and nearby sights) — and skip faraway spots like Lapu-Lapu Monument and Alegre Guitar Factory (both on Mactan Island — at least 45 min–1 hr one way by car).

Walking Tour of Cebu City — A Stroll Through 500 Years of History

08:00 a.m. – Start from Hotel (Capitol Site, 101 F. Gonzales Street)
After breakfast (or a strong local coffee), lace up your walking shoes. The city awaits!

08:15 a.m. – Fuente Osmeña Circle

Just a few minutes from your hotel, this circular park is the heart of Cebu City — like Esplanade for Cebuanos. Named after President Sergio Osmeña, it’s a great spot to feel the pulse of modern Cebu waking up.

08:45 a.m. – Colon Street

Walk (or take a short ride) downhill to the Philippines’ oldest street, laid out by Spanish colonizers in the 1560s. Colon feels like a mini-Burrabazar: chaotic, colorful, crowded — and charming in its own way.

09:30 a.m. – Heritage of Cebu Monument & Yap-San Diego Ancestral House

At the end of Colon stands this sculptural monument — a wild mix of bronze, stone, and steel narrating 500 years of Cebuano history in one glance. Right next door, peek into the Yap-San Diego House, one of the oldest surviving homes in the Philippines, built around 1675.

10:15 a.m. – Casa Gorordo Museum

A two-minute walk away, this elegant 19th-century home belonged to Cebu’s first bishop. It’s filled with period furniture and gives a peek into upper-class life during the Spanish era.

11:00 a.m. – Basilica Minore del Santo Niño & Magellan’s Cross

Walk south (about 10–12 minutes). You’ve reached Cebu’s most sacred site — home to the image of the Santo Niño (Holy Child) brought by Magellan in 1521. Just outside stands Magellan’s Cross, encased in a stone kiosk to protect it from zealous pilgrims.

Note: Wearing of sleeveless shirts, shorts and ripped pants is not allowed inside Sto Nino Church

11:45 a.m. – Fort San Pedro

A short stroll brings you to this compact but fascinating fort built in 1738 by the Spanish. It served as barracks, prison, and even a zoo at one point — history clearly had no shortage of imagination here!

12:30 p.m. – Lunch Break at La Vie Parisienne or nearby Café Laguna

Time to refuel. Try local dishes like sinigang (tangy soup) or Cebuano pancit, or go European if you’ve had enough rice for the day.

01:30 p.m. – National Museum of the Philippines – Cebu

Just beside Fort San Pedro, this museum — housed in a grand old customs building — tells the story of Cebu’s pre-colonial trade, Spanish conquest, and vibrant culture. Worth an hour’s stop.

03:00 p.m. – Destileria Limtuaco Museum (optional)

If you’re up for a little spirited exploration (pun intended), this museum showcases the Philippines’ oldest distillery, complete with tasting sessions — a 45-minute walk or quick Grab ride from the old quarter.

04:30 p.m. – Stroll back toward Fuente Circle / Capitol Area

Take a Grab or jeepney if your legs protest — it’s mostly uphill now.

06:30 p.m. – Dinner Time: Cebu Lechon Feast - (roast pig), considered the best in the Philippines

Celebrate your walking marathon with dinner at House of Lechon or Rico’s Lechon, both close to your hotel. Crispy skin, tender meat, and zero guilt — after all that walking, you’ve earned every calorie!

🏛️ Quick History Bites Along the Way:

Cebu is the cradle of Christianity in the Philippines — where Magellan planted his cross and Spanish rule began.
Colon Street is the country’s oldest street, laid out in the 1560s.
Santo Niño image was a gift from Magellan to Queen Juana in 1521 — the same one still revered today.
Fort San Pedro predates even Manila’s Intramuros by several decades.

This route is map-optimized, stays within a 4 km radius, and can be done comfortably on foot with short taxi rides as needed — ideal for a full day without rushing or doubling back.
