Cebu — The Gateway to a Thousand
Cebu is the traveler's fantasy of a tropical island come true - balmy

weather, pristine beaches, crystalline waters, and luxurious resorts with all
the frills of modern living. The island-province of Cebu was where the
Portuguese navigator Ferdinand Magellan planted the Cross of Christianity
in the name of Spain in 1521. But even before Cebu became the
Occidental gateway to the Orient, it was already a popular entry point
among Asian merchants.
Cebu has since blossomed into a choice tourist destination, with

many leisure establishments taking full advantage of its sea-valley-and-
mountain location.
Metropolitan Cebu, the country's second biggest metropolis, is the
political, economic, educational and cultural center of the Visayas. Hotels,
shopping malls, entertainment halls, casinos and golf fairways are ever
present in the metro to cater to every tourist's whim. The rest of Cebu's 166
islands and islets are fringed with sandy beaches and sapphire-clear
waters teeming with marine life, perfect for divers.Journeys
