Why Visit Bohol?

Everyday, tourist foreign and locals alike flock Bohol Island in an increasing numbers. I wonder why the island scents like Bella’s blood that Edward wanted her the most. Probably, the island magnetizes the people with its unique characteristics.

Here they are:

B – is for the Blessings of Balance. Bohol is a tiny island full of blessings ranging from bigger blessings to even bigger ones. One of which is balance. Why?
The island is rich in culture and a green environment.
There are the blessings of white sandy beaches along the shoreline of Panglao which balances our extra tired corporate minds.

There are the blessings of green rice fields
which balances our eyes tired from seeing sky creping buildings everyday.
There are the blessings of loving traditions that balances tired soul from unhealthy entertainment.


O – is for Omnipotent Oeuvre. The island is a masterpiece of the All-Powerful God. The One who give the blessings of balance.
The One who shape the island with so much enthusiasm.
The One who fill the island with rich culture.
The One who fill the island with so much art from hills to mountains, rivers to seas, roads to highways, bahay kubo
to mansion houses and heaven on earth.
Why heaven on earth?
He brings heaven on earth with his wonderful island.
What does this mean?
It is experiencing heaven while on earth.



H
– is for a Hallmark in History. As much as people love hearing stories, the island has plenty to offer. Many of them are centuries old like the Baclayon Church. Have you wondered how many chicken eggs where broken in building the church?
Yes. Eggs.
The egg white is used to cement coral stone churches during the Spanish Era.
Have you wondered how much pain of our grand, grand, grandest lolo’s and lola’s under the scorching sun building huge stone churches that stand proud up today’s age?
True enough, there are more stories stored in the island.



O – is for an Ocean of Oasis. The island is filled with retreat. A haven for everyone. A place to stay.
A haven for those who seek for the magnificent world they are living.
A haven for those who wanted their souls back from different kinds of thieves.
Need proof?
As you gaze along tricycle cabs at the heart of Tagbilaran City, at the back of each vehicles inscribes whispers from above in different fonts and sizes.
The island is not only for adventures haven.
It is also for soul searching.
An oasis for the soul.



L
– is for Legendary Legacy. The Gift of Friendship. It is the most treasured legacy in the island.

Bohol Sandugo Monument
It’s a legend written in history.
The friendship tightening among the tourist Miguel Lopez de Legaspi at Spain a native sano Datu Sikatuna along the coastline of Bool District Tagbilaran City. It explains today’s increasing volume of tourists.



The island is surrounded by neighboring friends like Cebu, Leyte, and other provinces.
Much has been said. All I wanted to say is Welcome to Why Visit Bohol and enjoy. Everyone is welcome here. Our arms are wide fully open to give you a big hug if you needed one. Have a great delight.
