Baclayon Church is the oldest church in Bohol (built in 1596). The church to date still has its original stone structure.
Museum was also built to showcase the old tabernacles, musical instruments, religious statues, candle holders, chandeliers used by the church before. Entrance to the museum is P25
The church is also recognized to have the 3rd oldest pipe organ in the Philippines(next to San Agustin Church and Las Pinas church).

This is the site where Miguel Lopez de Legazpi and Datu Sikatuna held their blood compact as a symbol of friendly relationship between Spaniards and the native of Bohol.
BLOOD COMPACT - After cutting a small wound at the arm of each of the two leaders, few drops of blood are drawn and place in a separate glass with wine. Witnessed by the followers of both, eEach leader drank the mixture of wine and blood of the other.
One thing strange in this shrine is the historical marker which was located almost 100 meters away.

Much has been said about the cruise, but one thing I really liked about it is the serenader who casts magic musical scores while taking lunch and enjoying the view of Loboc river.
At the end of the river, another group of local folks riding in bamboo raft are eagerly waiting to perform songs you wish to be played for just a small amount of donation.

 view of Alona Beach south by moonlighting
This path, I guess, is really hardly ever taken. The beach here is mossy, rocky, and the sand, coarse (corals). But walking through the path covered with small trees with sharp branches and twigs gives you the feeling you're on a mini-trek or hike. ALong the way you meet locals having a picnic of grilled catch. Leave a Comment

 many loud birds by picek
Very interesting to see but unfortunately light is too low to make any good picture with normal camera at that time, so just enjoy them watching - it is amusing scene, however!
And while you're watching - keep your walets in a secure place as there can be also pick pockets out there with birds - but much closer to the ground!
