visiting ormoc city in leyte

Tweet

It was my first time to visit the city of Ormoc in the Visayas. It was a long trip. I got off a plane to get to the Tacloban airport and a long travel by land for hours to get to my destination. It was worth it though i felt that I spent the whole day travelling. It was a good consolation getting away from the busy streets of Manila. Life in Ormoc is just simple though I can say that there are so many big houses and buildings there already. I love their tricycle which is very unusual to the classic tricycle i see in Manila. It's like a small jeepney version of a tricycle. I had the chance to visit Mcarthur's landing site with his statues there still erected in bronze. I happened to see the magnificent San Juanico bridge which connects Samar to Leyte. It was also the first time that I had tried cable car in Agas-Agas bridge. The beach that we visited there was really magnificent! The shoreline was full of fine rocks and the water was clear. I wish I can go back there with the whole family with me. I bet that the kids would love it.
