Hofilena Heritage House

Reviewed By ler0ma

Everything comes alive in this museum through the stories of Ramon Hofileña, the owner and tour guide of the museum. Tell him if you only have an hour or less to spare so that he could tailor-fit his lecture/tour.

Silliman University

Reviewed By profits101 - Cebu City, Philippines

The 100+ year history of this highly ranked, American-founded university is too complex and deep to cover here. The campus is a beautiful, green respite from he surrounding city and contains fine examples of Eastlake architecture, Art Deco, and Classic architecture - set in a mature, verdant Beaux-Arts style arrangement. Also, unlike many universities, its easy to access at the gates and visitors are not turned away. Worth reading a Wiki article on it that captures the founding in depth, WWII history, and even interesting events from he Marcos era. In the meantime, just enjoy the walk.

I find it amazing that there are so many historical structures still standing in the Philippines. I stopped and read the plaque out front took pictures for the scrapbook. Just Another interesting site to put on your to do list. Its next to the Cathedral and across from Rizal Park.
