Kamay ni Hesus Shrine in Lucban, Quezon

        Kamay ni Hesus Shrine, built on a hilltop in the province of Quezon in the town of Lucban. It is an ideal destination for tourists and pilgrims not only during the holy week and simbang gabi but during the whole ecclesiastical year.

Visita Iglesia: Dauis Church in Bohol

          The Our Lady of Assumption Church is one of the major tourist attractions in Dauis, Bohol. It is locally known as Señora de la Asunción. 

      The church was founded by the Jesuits Fr. Diego de Ayala and Joseph Gregorio. It is constructed of solid rocks or stones and it has paintings on the walls that are quite attractive. 

         There is a small well inside the church in front of the altar. They consider the water to be holy because it is claimed that it can cure illnesses. It was surprisingly discovered that though the area is surrounded by the ocean, but the water from the well is not very salty and is considered potable.

Bohol Souvenirs and Handicrafts

           Shopping for souvenirs, handicrafts, and other memorabilia in Bohol is available in a number of good outlets. 

        You can find Bohol crafts and decors, the famous Tarsier dolls, purses, key-chains, souvenir shirts, shells and pearls.

        Items worth buying are crafts and decors but don't forget, Peanut Kisses, Bohol's number one pasalubong and other Peanut-based products in Bohol. Try also the Calamay, made of coconut and molasses. (yummy!)

 Recommended buying locations:

• Bee Farm - Home baked bread, squash muffins, pure honey, honey spread and handicrafts are some of the products. (must-try at Bee Farm: Organic Garden Salad)
