Toledo City, Cebu
I never got it to the 2:45 PM trip from Toledo City in Cebu to San Carlos City in Negros Occidental. I’ve got late leaving Cebu City due to some obligations at the Museum. So I waited here in the port in which we’re going to depart at around 5PM for Negros. I wonder if there are still buses plying Don Salvador at that time? Or else, I have no choice but to take the longer route, grueling 5 hour trip to Bacolod City via Escalante-Cadiz area. Whoa!
Anyway, this city was known to be the center of mining during the 80′s and 90′s. It was the site of Atlas Mining, which extracted copper from the rocks of Cebu. During those days, it was the heyday of Toledo’s economy. After it was closed, the city went to its laid-back mood again.
Toledo City Port
There’s nothing much to see in Toledo City except that it is the most important port among the 3 ports in western Cebu. A transit point for Negros which is a 30 minutes away by fastcraft, an hour and a half by ordinary ferry.
Since I did have a limited time, I wasn’t able to see Toledo’s hidden wonders. I’ll find time next time, but right now I have to cross Tañon Strait to go home.
malapit lang to sa amin.. hehe
