Iloilo is a city of many firsts. It has the first provincial high school, Iloilo National Highschool, as well as the first concrete road (which stretches from Forbes Bridge to Jaro Plaza) in the country.
There are taxi services available; prices range from PHP300 upwards. There are also metered cabs right outside the airport. It takes 30 to 45 minutes to get to the city. By day we checked out Fort San Pedro, which offers scenic views.
By noon we went to Nelly’s Garden. It’s an art-deco house.
There are also old buildings in Calle Real.
By night the avenue building in Pison compound houses Coffee Break, Nothing but Desserts, Bauhinia, Mojave Grill and Steak House, and Amalfi.
Through Urban Inn‘s rooms are not very spacious, they are clean and sleek in design, with Wi-Fi, 24-hour security, and free use of the gym. You may contact them at (33) 329 67 24.
Ilonggo breakfast is real homey! This Ilonggo food is called “Laswa”. I like it. It’s probably the best breakfast I ever had in iloilo!
