I stayed 15 days in Iloilo City, and I loved every single day of it. If you're a foreigner and you want to experience a modern city incorporated with local culture, visit Iloilo.

[@InvestedAdventure]

I kinda regret not going to Iloilo during my recent trip to the Philippines especially after watching your video. The food, man, that batchoy looks heavenly

[@02traveltv]

Well now you have another reason to come back and visit the Philippines ✌️. BTW the Batchoy is really really good, and you will find iloilo city so different from the other cities in the country. I also have a video about Gigantes Islands which is the prime tourist attraction in Iloilo, you might like it. Take care 👍

[@InvestedAdventure]

@@02traveltv Thanks man! The city of looooove too, I hear!

[@02traveltv]

@InvestedAdventure yes it is the city of love of the Philippines because of how soft their dialect sounds, its Hiligaynon. Fun fact: just recently Iloilo city became UNESCO Creative City of Gastronomy, so Yummy foods haha

[@InvestedAdventure]

@@02traveltv That's amazing - surely the balut!

[@02traveltv]

Hello welcome to Iloilo 😊, this city is amazing

[@leodivinagracia9625]

Just in case you come back to Iloilo City, Visit Arevalo District also. Go to the seaside and you will be delighted with array of seafood restaurants. If there is Milo Mansion, there is also Arevalo Mansion or Villa Mansion. It is newly restored and it is not yet well known to everyone. It is also beautiful. By the way, Lizares Mansion, Agatona 1927 and Balay Remedios, all Heritage Houses in Iloilo City that are open to tourists now

[@02traveltv]

Wow! I missed a lot in Iloilo city, thank you for all of these new locations. I'm already excited for my next Iloilo visit

[@armandosune3839]

I'm surprised but delighted at the transformation of La Paz Church. La Paz Church has one of the most beautiful colorful new classic-designed Retablos in ILOILO CITY and PROVINCE. Notice the colorful details in the Main Retablo - there are tiny swatches of green, red, etc in the beautiful details ot the La Paz Church Main Altar and Side Altars, and the Altar Table. The Parish Priest responsible for the beautiful major renovation) restoration of the La Paz District Parish Church of Nuestra Señora de la Paz y Buen Viaje ( Our Lady of Peace and Good Voyage) is Fr. Renato Cuadras, who is now assigned at the Pavia Church of Santa Monica in Pavia, Metro Ilollo. Fr. Renato Cuadras is also responsible for the beautiful new restoration of the Pavia Parish Church of Santa Monica.

[@02traveltv]

Wow! Thank you ♥️♥️♥️ I love churches architectures but these facts you have shared are also incredible. But yes the restoration of the church was great, but I find it a little bit leaning to modern architecture. Am I right sir?

[@armandosune3839]

The other delightful-tasting La Paz Batchoy dishes in ILOILO include Popoy's (my current favorite), Ted's, Deco's, Netong's, Inggo's (at Magsaysay village in La Paz, beside the IloIlo Sports Complex). There are also delicious versions in Santa Barbara, which I still have to try. And now, i have to try the Alicia's version when i get back to ILOILO, someday.

[@02traveltv]

I haven't tasted Popoy's, Noooooo!!! Thank you for this, now I know what to eat when I go back. 😔

[@litoyvillagracia799]

Welcome to the city of love❤️🙏👍💪

[@02traveltv]

Thank you, it's an amazing city

[@armandosune3839]

The Villa Arevalo Parish Church is where you can find the third oldest Santo Niño in the Philippines, replica is enshrined at the left Side Altar. The original is kept in the compound of the Parish. It is the Santo Niño de Villa Arevalo Iloilo, brought from Spain to Iloilo in 1581. The oldest is in Cebu (1565); the second oldest is in Tondo, Manila (1571).

[@02traveltv]

And I thought i visited all the churches in iloilo already, but I missed this. Thank you sir. I already marked Archdiocesan Shrine of Santo Niño de Arevalo so that I can visit it on my next Iloilo trip 😊

[@raymondjohnsotelo3115]

[@renze1122]

Hahaha yan dapat comment ko sayo sa first video mo hehehe..The best batchoy Alicia’s!!! yung 13 years na always ako sa city ..pero 2 times ko plng na tikman yan..at last month lang hahahhaha

[@02traveltv]

Oo grabe the best ang Alicias, it was really good!

[@armandosune3839]

Popoy's is my favorite. But many are swearing by Alicia's. Thus, I need to try Alicia's someday when I get back to ILOILO.

[@02traveltv]

Alicia's was really good, and watching this video made me wanna eat it again, Ill eat Popoy's when I go visit again and also I missed the one that they are telling me in Santa Barbara 😞

[@mariekurihara3233]

Beautiful 🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤

[@02traveltv]

♥️♥️♥️

[@armandosune3839]

Seeing your Swedish friend dip the Iloilo manapla Puto in the La Paz Batchoy sauce made me suddenly hungry and raring to get back to ILOILO! Question - Why does La Paz Batchoy taste different when eaten outside ILOILO?

[@02traveltv]

Hahaha yea the Puto manapla is better if dipped in the Batchoy and I think Batchoy is better in Iloilo because of the local ingredients, meat tastes different in different places... Maybe 🤔

[@jemmybernas9306]

He is good …for me I’m from Iloilo City but considered myself Im immigrant to my own City

[@02traveltv]

I love iloilo it has everything, I wish I can move there in the future 🙂

[@boyybakal]

I'm ilonggo, living in the city. I'm craving for batchoy just now hahah

[@02traveltv]

Hahaha the Alicia's Batchoy is the best, I tasted the other ones already. Alicia's is yummy yummy in your tummy 😆

[@Amandalaz0]

Try as well visiting museums in Iloilo like the museum of Ph maritime history or the national museum of the Ph Western visayas region. And they’re all free. Or visit garin farm, waterworld Iloilo, snorkeling in Guimaras. Try eating in century old houses. Kayaking in Iloilo River, Biking the esplanades. Visiting local public markets( all are under renovation) if you had enough you can travel to boracay as well for more adventure

[@02traveltv]

Sadly I never had the chance to visit the museums but I jogged in esplanade everyday when I was there, it was awesome. I also visited Garin farm and I was so surprised by the last part of the tour. All the other things you mentioned are reasons for me to go back to Iloilo in the future ✌️🙂. Thank you

[@landeroul]

❤❤❤

[@02traveltv]

Hello, hope you enjoyed the video. Thank you

[@armandosune3839]

Where is Alicia's located?

[@02traveltv]

Its near La Paz Church sir, their Batchoy is really good 🙂

[@jemmybernas9306]

Maybe he is the descendants of Nicholas Loney

[@02traveltv]

Hahahaha If he reads this maybe he can answer it 😅

[@jenell73]

how odd can it be when your guide is a foreigner 😅

[@02traveltv]

Yes, we were laughing about it off cam. My friend really loves Iloilo city and he made it his home already.

[@spared02417]

Hi bro, it's easy to find HALAL food there?

[@02traveltv]

I've seen some, as a matter of fact I ate in one near Molo church an Indonesian restaurant and it was goo, It is called Jom Makan.

[@ReadySetGo113]

Have NO IDEA how this related to "Most affordable city". You made no statements at all about costs, either living there or visiting there. Not impressed

[@02traveltv]

Iloilo is hailed as the Most Affordable Destination in the Philippines this year and I'm showing my audience what's with the city. Sorry if I did not impress you.

[@ReadySetGo113]

@@02traveltv pretty stupid answer in relation to complaint. Now doubt why you have so many subscribers. Bye. Not worth my time
