Why Cebu City Is Loved by Many

“Do you have malls in Cebu?

What is your mode of transportation?

What’s so fun about Cebu?”

These are a few questions asked by my non-Cebuano friends. Most wonder how our lovely city differs from theirs, and why people love to visit–especially foreigners.

Cebu City can offer you every view you desire, which is why people keep coming back. Anyone who has visited claims that their hearts will always remain here forever. I mean, what’s not to adore? From beaches and mountains that are less than an hour away, a world-class mall, five-star hotels and resorts, and a nightlife like no other.

Venture Cebu through the sea.

While it’s a common misconception and an ongoing joke that we ONLY use boats as a mode of transportation, it’s not entirely false. Some parts of Cebu, especially the islands, are only accessible through a boat ride, such as–Olango Island, Sumilon Island, and many more! You get to see life under the sea as you travel from one island to another.

Thrilling high mountains.

Want to take a break from your mundane daily routine? Are you looking to amp up your Saturday morning? These mountains with absolutely breathtaking views (which could be taken quite literally because of the long hours of hiking) are the perfect destination for your trekking plans.

It’s true what they say, Cebu really has something that triggers the wanderlust in you.

White sand beaches everywhere.

Beat the summer heat by hydrating your skin at Cebu’s immaculate beaches. They are undeniably the best getaway spots to spend your vacation at. Don’t forget to drink your coconut water or “butong” by the sea as you admire your daylight view, and beer or champagne to end your night.

Experience partying Cebuano style.

Non-Cebuanos recently made a trend of visiting Cebu over the weekend just to experience the nightlife.

“Lahi rajod sa Cebu dzai,” (Cebu really is different) as one famous content creator from Davao said. They say that the experience is far more different than the parties they’ve ever been to.

But what makes Cebu’s nightlife distinct?

While the bustling and energetic crowds at the heart of Cebu are exciting, the atmosphere of parties by the beach is incomparable. Sand under your feet and wind in your hair as you dance to your favorite party music–definitely a terrific way of spending your summer nights.

Shop like a Cebuano.

Never miss a chance to take a peek at Cebu’s world-class lifestyle mall that’s located near the sea. Hence, the name — SM Seaside City Cebu.

This mall features different kinds of views surrounding it: Mountain Wing, Seaview Wing, Cube Wing, City View, and Sky Park. Along with famous lifestyle brands and restaurants of different cuisines, and family-friendly activities.

The Queen City of the South

Cebu should be on everyone’s travel bucket list. The city is so progressive that it’s not just home to different mesmerizing tourist spots, but also where businesses flourish and job opportunities can be found on every corner.

Not only that, Cebuanos make the city even more famous with their all-rounder skills and warm personalities. You can bump into a Cebuano and hang out with them for an hour or so, and you will remember them for the rest of your life.

Book your tickets. Cebu awaits!
