Hello, my dear lovely hivers! Its me again @justcallmepia I would be glad to share the moment we had yesterday at the one of the most tourist attraction here in Cebu, City the 10k Roses🩷

Despite the many problems that we’ve faced, we should never forget to have fun or take time to enjoy ourselves. Visit places that relieve stress and make us feel most alive. Life is too short not to give ourselves a break. Yesterday morning, I kept scrolling on Facebook, and I saw a spot in Cordova, Cebu, called 10k Roses, which is currently located in Day-as, Cordova, Cebu. I was amazed because they really developed the place to become a tourist spot, and it looks very nice, especially when you're on top. So I was enticed, and I told my partner that we should go out because we're already overwhelmed with life, we've been through so many trials, and we haven't gone out yet, hehe, so he agreed.

(This picture caught me as I viewed their page on Facebook, so lovely!)

I read on their page that it's nicer to visit there at night because the petals of the roses really bloom. So, in the evening, I was very excited because we were finally going out. We traveled earlier by 6 pm because Consolacion, Cebu, to Cordova, Cebu, is very far.

While traveling, I kept imagining how beautiful the 10k roses are because they say expectations versus reality. And then, Google Maps didn't cooperate because we couldn't find Day-as, we got lost many times (lol), but we finally arrived at our destination by constantly asking for directions (lol).

And here it is! We arrived at 10k Roses, and the traffic was terrible because many people went there. So, when we arrived, their staff was very accommodating; they really guided us, especially to the parking space, until we finally got inside. Before you enter, they have a souvenir shop that can also give you an interest to buy because there are many tourists there, like Koreans, Japanese, and Americans, and they also have a Lantaw Restaurant that like live seafoods and etc.

(In the main entrance, it caught our attention to get a picture on YOLO sign(You only live once)

So, we entered the roses, and their entrance fee is 20 pesos per head, so it's very affordable if you guys visit there. Your 20 pesos entrance fee won't be regretted because of the beauty of the place, and it's very relaxing because the air is very cold, and they also have sand sofa chairs and a roof deck with tables and chairs, offering a relaxing view of Cebu City and the longest bridge in Cebu, the CCLEX bridge. You can really enjoy just the view because the blooming white roses are so attractive, and what's nice is that they also change to different colors provided by the LED lights they added. The place is perfect for couples, most likely for dates and proposals.

Here are some pictures that captured our hearts🩷

I didn't regret visiting 10k Roses despite the distance because all my stress was eased, and my partner and I enjoyed it, and it was worth it to visit one of the popular tourist attractions in Cebu City.

If I would rate the place, from the accommodation of the staff, the whole place, I would give it a 10/10. The work of Filipinos is very overwhelming, especially in the construction of tourist spots, which brings joy to people. The place is highly recommended, especially for those who are very stressed with life, and you can also shout out all your pain in life on the roof deck if you're not ashamed to shout in front of many people hahaha.

Anyways, I'm so happy feeling this way because of what my partner makes me feel. Despite the storms we've been through in life, he is still managing his time to let us go out 🥰 and he always makes me feel the effort here with me. Feeling so loved and grateful to have this kind of man. Even though our relationship is not perfect because nobody's perfect, at least we are still very strong even though we lost two children, we still never give in to all the storms in life. Kudos always to my partner in life because if he is not strong, I am not strong either, and God makes us strong always.

And that's the end of the story, I hope you were inspired and amazed by reading. Thank you very much for always supporting, all are much appreciated! God bless always 🩷 love always @justcallmepia 🥰
