Bienvenidos (Welcome)
Hello Bloggers! This is my first ever blogsite which aims to introduce to you my homeland Zamboanga City which is known to be the Asia's Latin City.
This blog talks about the culture, tradition, people and especially the unique language of Zamboanga City which is known as Chavacano (Broken Spanish) a language which is considered to be the oldest creole language in the world.
Todays post will give you a simple tour on some of the tourist attraction in Zamboanga City which I had visited most of the time during my childhood days aat Zamboanga.
Will start with the Fortaleza Del Pilar or Fort Pilar :)
After 5 years of being an alien in my own homeland, It was still very frrsh in my cognitive mind that this landmark was one of the most holy places at Zamboanga City. I still remember that when someone in our family ceebrate his/her birthday we always make it sure that we did a visit at Fortaleza and pray as well.
For the future visitor at Fortaleza, I will assure you that you will feel the solemnity of the place that will make you eagerness to pray boost . You will also enjoy the nice landscapes and statues of saints displayes within the premise of the whole fortaleza.
So, Come and Enjoy the Fortaleza del Pilar:)
Next up will be the Vintas of Zamboanga
The colorful vintas of Zamboanga became the famous attraction of my hometown. This colorful sail boats had colorful flags that was designed by the Maranao tribs in Zamboanga but during this time colorful vintas also became a main attraction durin the celebration of Zamboanga Fiesta Pilar which always been commemorated in every october month as a way of giving thanks and praise to Santa Pilar.
Vina Racing became part of each year's celebration of Fiesta Pilar and definitely increased the numbers of tourists.
Surely, Zamboanga City has more cool stuffs to offer not only for its tourist destination but also for its diverse culture, language, foods, and others.
Viva !Ciudad DE ZAMBOANGA!
