Around Cebu City: Taoist Temple

Cebu City is my birth place and my the city I call home but I seldom have the chance to explore the city's "tourist" attractions because of life's daily demands.  Anyway, we had the best chance to do so - me, my forever travel buddy, sister and cousins finally revisited one of Cebu City's famous attraction, the Taoist Temple.

Taoist Temple of Cebu is located Dona Modesta Singson Gaisano, Cebu City, 6015 Cebu

Happy World

My forever travel buddy and I had the chance to navigate around the island of Mactan, Cebu in search of the "trick-eye / optical art" museum which is officially named as CEBU HAPPYWORLD MUSEUM.

And we were successful to have discovered this one happy place in this world.  Scroll down to see how we struggled and made use of the gigantic artworks  to capture images that are close to reality (that 3D effect).  Though I have some epic fail moments, but our aim was plainly to have f-u-n!  Hope you enjoy the photos as much as I enjoyed doing dramatic and playful scenes.

Obviously, this place is indeed a HAPPYWORLD since I was enjoying with the marvelous works of art.

CEBU HAPPYWORLD MUSUEM is located at Lot 2-A-3 Brgy. Gabi, Cordova, Cebu.

i Travel - Intosan Resort at Danao City

Summer has already concluded and rainy days are here again.  But, would you agree that we still crave for days where we need to unwind, relax, breathe fresher air and take a dip on the pool?

And yes, you read it right, pool, as in swimming pool.  It's time to ditch the the beach and dip in the pool to keep your cool! (i'm into rhymes)

There's this one waterpark resort located at Taboc, Danao City called INTOSAN RESORT. Heard of it? or have gone there?

Here's a sneak peek of what's in store for you and your family at INTOSAN RESORT - Hotel and Restaurant , Waterpark and Family Fun Village.

This is not a sponsored nor a paid advertisement.  I am just eager to share a good place for the family to enjoy and to create wonderful memories at this resort.

If you happen on to have plans over the weekend, either the regular one or during longer weekends, do consider INTOSAN RESORT as one of your getaways.  It is outside of Cebu City but still within a city (Danao) but with lesser hustle and bustle and fresher air is more available.

The kids and the young at heart will definitely  find happiness in the assortment of swimming pools at INTOSAN RESORT.  It surely provides the ultimate outdoor water park experience!

Cafe Chronicles: Cafe Tiala

I've researched another Cafe within Cebu City and ended up this cutesy, girlish Korean-inspired cafe located at a building that is adjacent to the Grand Convention Center in Archbishop Reyes Avenue.

Second Stop:

C A F E    T I A L A

Cafe Tiala has a different theme from the first cafe that we stepped foot on (remember Coffee Prince? HERE) since they have ladies dress in maid uniforms to welcome and render their services to the customers.

Complementary sandwich and hot tea.

Cute menu set that comes in a box.

Of course, we ordered Korean spicy noodles and rice which was presented in a heart shape, another cutesy presentation.

Fish cakes, so rich in flavor, that's why we ordered rice.

I promised myself (almost like a vow, lol) that every time I visit a cafe for the first time, I have to order my favorite caffeinated Java or chocolate chip frappe.  Good that Cafe Tiala has their rendition of Java chip frappe.  It's presentation perfectly matches for a princess, a frappe coffee in a goblet.

The mini cabin-like divisions of the cafe, which they call Princess Room.  Looks like extra large doll houses for princesses.

A facial expression for blank thoughts. Anyway, I knew, because it was scheduled, that we are to visit Cafe Tiala, so I wore a pink ensemble to match the cafe's theme color. (pink for princesses).

If you have been following this blog, I am an advocate of Color Coordination, as I highly emphasized on my self-declared fashion advocacy: C.L.E.A.N. fashion where C stands for Color Coherence or coordination.  In this outfit, I went almost head-to-toe monochoromatic, in a pink-shade ( babypink) & tint (fuchsia pink)- color coordination.  

CAFE TIALA is located at The Forum Building, 2nd floor Unit 2-D along Archbishop Reyes Avenue, Cebu City.  Make sure to drop by there one day.

What I Wore:
denim jeggings - Jag
fuchsia pink "cat"  mullet top - Kirin-Kirin @ Ayala Alabang Town Center
baby pink custom-made blazer - my tailor
 fuchsia pink satin flats - MNG 
sunglasses - G. Fiesta Mall
necklace - G. Metro
