I think this church is quite special. It is a church that puts religious figures and secular figures together, and they are placed side by side. However, this church has a very long history and the locals also value it very much.

The Dumaguete Belfry is the oldest bell tower in the Visayas and is a very famous architectural landmark in the city of Dumaguete.

The first time I went to the Philippines, I went to Long Beach. I didn't feel anything. The second time I drove here, I was pleasantly surprised. There is basically no development here. For someone like me who wants to experience diving, the seabed is very beautiful. I saw sardine storms, clown fish, turtles...
