People come and go. They come to the Philippines, lured by sandy beaches and swaying palm trees. They dive into clear waters and enjoy the tropical corals unlike nowhere else. They come to Dumaguete, to Apo and Sumilon Islands. Across the bay from Cagayan de Oro City lies Camiguin Island where Mt. Hibok-hibok lies sleeping lazily, its ashes from eruptions long ago giving the famed lanzones its sweet flavor.

Over 7000 islands dot the Philippine Archipelago. This is Ching's World. More than merely comprising islands and beaches, Ching's World is a bold idea of resilience and inner strength and power. It is very easy to stare in awe at some huge monument built long ago. More brave is to gaze at nothing and see something great. Visit Cagayan de Oro City.
