Cebu is widely considered as the cultural hub of the Philippines’ Central Visayas region. The province is home to the port city of Cebu, an economic area of urban growth that still retains remnants of its colonial and pre-colonial past and is surrounded by some of the most gorgeous natural tropical surroundings you’ll see in your life.
No doubt Cebu is one of the country's top tourist destinations and when you mention the name of the province, Cebu is always associated with endless white-sand beaches and world-class diving spots. Aside from top-notch beaches and resorts, Cebu's nature-based attractions draw countless visitors too—including the waterfall lovers.
Dubbed as "Queen City of the South" and "First Capital of the Philippines", Cebu City is known to be one of the country's top tourist destinations. Visitors can take a glimpse of the country's historical past and multifaceted culture, and apart from these, the city alone offers tourists a handful of things to see and do.
The year 2013 looks very promising for the Philippines in terms of tourism. Why not? DOT did an amazing job in launching and promoting the "It's More Fun in the Philippines" tourism campaign in 2012. It's no wonder that the country is recently getting the limelight it deserves as major international publications agree that Philippines is one of the top destinations in the world for 2013.
