Roxas City: Jewel in the South


















I was glad that I went to the charming and quaint city of  Roxas in Capiz province located in Southern Philippines.  Instead of taking the usual flight either to Caticlan or Kalibo, I decided to instead go to Roxas enroute to Boracay.  The city boasts of well paved streets, beautifully maintained plaza, and generally clean and peaceful environment.  So unlike most towns and cities in the Philippines which are dirty, dusty and crowded. Roxas City also has a huge bus terminal located outside of the city which is probably the best in the country.

Its the hometown of controversial Secretary Mar Roxas and if the condition of Roxas City is  any indication,  then should he become the next President of the Philippines, there's a good chance that the country is destined for better things!
