Metropolitan Cathedral of Immaculate Conception

Reviewed By JoepepCielos - Luzon, Philippines

This was my second time to visit the Metropolitan Cathedral of Immaculate Conception in Zamboanga City. But this was my first time to attend a mass and got to see the second floor of the church. What is unique about this holy place is that it houses two (2) churches or worship places: one (1) at the ground floor and another one (1) at the second floor. But all the regular masses are being conducted at the second floor. The church is big and white. The design is both timely and stylish with some old designs that can be seen in its window and wall glasses. It was a great place to worship and pray.

Great Santa Cruz Island

Reviewed By 131ma1 - Zamboanga City, Philippines

Sta. Cruz island is about 20 minutes boat ride away from Zamboanga City. The beach has pink sands although the swimming area gets rocky just a few meters from the shore. Paddling to the Lagoon sanctuary is very interesting, where many aquatic organisms are protected. Overall, its a nice beach!
