Package 10: Tagbilaran City Tour (Half Day Tour No meals)
Tour Description:
This tour allows you to take a glance of Bohol’s capital city of about 100,000 people, with its old houses and public market. Tagbilaran City has been called the City of Friendship as this is where Captain Miguel Lopez de Legaspi of Spain and Rajah Sika Tuna fostered and sealed a friendly relation between two nations through the Blood Compact(Sandugo). At present, reenactment of this event is done every year thru the Sandugo Street Dancing and Mardigrass.
The Provincial Capitol is just across the St. Joseph Cathedral, originally built in 1767 by the Jesuit mission. Although the structure has been renovated but the original silver pieces in its altar are well preserved and still being used. Just beside the Capitol is the Bohol Branch of the National Museum, which displays historical artifacts of the province
