Sinulog 2014 Celebration - On The Streets

The Sights...   The Sounds...   The Vibe...   

One week before this prestigious festival, the streets of Cebu already becomes vibrant and lively. The Sinulog beat can be felt just about anywhere: inside the malls, in the restaurants, private establishments, public offices, bars, in the streets, etc. For me, this was a good time to explore the city since it has lesser crowd and you can also appreciate more the beauty of Cebu without any undivided attention.

THE GIGANTIC DISPLAYS
The most awaited attraction in the heart of Cebu, Fuente Osmena Circle, was these gigantic displays featuring the image of Snr. Sto. Nino. Penshoppe and Bambi Oil were among the biggest companies in the country who sponsored the said displays. I'm always excited to photographed these beautiful designs every year because each year was always different. It's free though, no payment needed. These huge displays were just right to add a little stir to the festival.

Sinulog 2014 Celebration - the Mother of all Festivals in the Philippines

Yeebah!!! It's this time of the year again. Celebrated every 3rd Sunday of January, the SiNuLOG FeSTiVaL in Cebu City is considered to be the Mother of All Festivals in the Philippines. Woooahh! That's a lot to take in.
The Sinulog Festival has greatly evolved. During my childhood days I remember seeing the colorful parade without any hassle on the streets as well as going to the church, Basilica Minore del Sto . Nino, very smoothly. Now lots of things have changed.
