(last two pics courtesy of my friend, Lou)These pictures were taken inside San Nicolas de Tolentino Cathedral of Surigao City. Since we arrived too early for RORO trip to Siargao which was scheduled at noon, we decided to explore Surigao City. About 4 years ago, we made do with the carenderias for our meals but now, Jollibee as well as Greenwich and Chowking are already doing business in the city. The city’s San Nicolas de Tolentino Cathedral is just around the corner and we decided to get in and took some pictures. In front of the church is the city’s plaza. It was raining but that did not stop us from taking pictures.
The city has improved since the last time we went there. There are now jeepneys plying around the city when there was just tricycles years ago. There are more well-known business establishments such as the fastfood chain stores I mentioned earlier. They have also improved their city ports and the city is relatively clean.
Surigao City is the capital city of Surigao del Norte province. Located at the northeastern tip of Mindanao Island, it is aptly called Gateway to Mindanao. It faces the Philippine Deep which is part of the Pacific Ocean. It is also blessed with natural resources such as abundant mineral resources, fertile lands, and vast fisheries and aquatic resources. It has been popular to the surfing aficionados for several years now due to its world famous Cloud 9 in Siargao Island. Lately, Siargao is starting to get popular in game fishing too. Aside from its surfing and game fishing adventures, the beaches of Surigao are world class.
