01
The Fascinating White Beach
The White Beach is the largest
beach in the world and also one of the top ten beaches worldwide, dubbed as the
most beautiful beach in Asia. You must sense the uniqueness of this place by yourself.
The sand here is just like the powdered sugar. You will feel it cool even if you
step on the sand at noon. The sand is getting finer while you walk toward the Willy's
Rock, and at last, it will really look as fine as flour. Imagine that you step on
the sand every day with the sea breeze accompanying you. What a desirable life!
If you want to enjoy the most
beautiful sunset, you might as well go to the White Beach at dusk. It will be
unforgettable to observe the sun sinking slowly down the horizon, and the wonderful
color change in the sky. You can even rent an unpowered sailboat and just float
on the sea to enjoy the unpredictable clouds during sunset quietly.
There are rich water activities
on the White Beach, including snorkeling, deep diving, banana boats, sailboards,
parasailing, and glass-bottom boats. Well, don't forget to bargain with the local
people to clinch a deal at a reasonable price.

The
Philippines' "Gulangyu Islet"
Intramuros is a castle built by the Spaniards when they first ruled
the Philippines. It's also the oldest urban area in Manila. Unlike other areas in
Manila, Intramuros is endowed with a bit of cultural ambience, somewhat
similar to the Gulangyu Islet in Xiamen, China. The European-style buildings and
the spider-web-like wires up in the sky form a distinctive view of Intramuros in
Manila. When you are wandering through Intramuros, you may feel like walking through
an ancient town in Spain.
You can also take a tour by special carriage and listen to a groom
who will tell you the story of setbacks and hardships. It's like traveling back
in that very period. The ancient carriages carry visitors through the streets, gates,
harbors, and fortresses, and enable you to admire Manila Cathedral, the largest
church in Manila, St. Agustin Church and Museum, Casa Manila Museum, Fort Santiago,
and Rizal Museum, where your heart will be baptized by the history.

Bacolod,
the City of Smiles
To be friendly, enthusiastic and facing life with smiles are the
most wonderful features of Bacolod, the City of Smiles and also the fifth largest
city in the Philippines. With clean and fresh air and a high degree of greening,
Bacolod is ranked as one of the most livable cities in the Philippines.
It attracts numerous tourists for its beautiful tropical beaches,
hospitable local residents, delicious food and historical attractions. There is
beautiful natural scenery in Bacolod, the most refreshing spot of which is the pure
beach without a trace of impurities. The city is enveloped by the sea. Because of
such a special topography, cross-island transportation has become an important feature
in local transportation.
Take the cross-island transportation from Bacolod South Station to
Cebu North Station as an example. For a one-way trip, this route takes 6 hours,
which is relatively long. Although the islands are adjacent, there are no trains
connecting them, and the airfare is too expensive for the local people in view of
their financial capability. Therefore, people mainly rely on passenger transportation
with buses at present.
King Long buses play an important
role in this route. With comfortable ergonomic seats, on-board air conditioners,
as well as TVs and toilets, it provides passengers with more human-based long-distance
transportation services, becoming the priority choice for local passengers.
In addition to Bacolod, there
are also a lot of King Long buses providing services in Cebu, Bohol Island and other
famous tourist destinations. According to statistics, the number of King Long buses
in the Filipino market now exceeds 2,000, ranking first among the exports of Chinese
buses.
After the rainy season of the
Philippines in April has just passed, it comes to a time when the sun is
shining and everything is full of vigor. If you come to the Philippines at this
moment, you will surely see the beautiful scenery that you won't see on the other
time periods. You can start a romantic journey in the Philippines by simply boarding
a King Long bus at will.
