Philippines Travel Guides: Places to Visit and Things to Do

Fort San Pedro is one of the most historically important landmarks in the Philippines, but let’s be honest… it’s probably not the most exciting. In about an hour, you can explore the country’s oldest triangular fort, learn how Spanish colonization began in Cebu, and wander centuries-old coral stone walls that have survived wars, revolutions, and occupations. Skip the self-guided tour and spend a few extra pesos on one of the knowledgeable local college student guides. Their stories bring the fort to life in a way the information signs never could.
