SULU

 

 

Without a doubt, Sulu should be an overwhelming source of pride not only for its inhabitants but also for all Filipinos.

A jewel-like tiny island in the Sulu Sea, a 1.5 hour boat rides north of  Sandakan; Lankayan has been declared part of an immense Marine  Protected Area to adopt the eco-tourism concept.   Unpopulated and covered  by thick tropical island vegetation on its topside, this peaceful, untouched  little bit of paradise is ringed by an endless pure white sandy beach.  Read More:  http://lankayan-island.com/

On the balcony of a Marine battalion headquarters in Camp Bud Datu – the Hill of Rulers – you would see Jolo below, tranquil and sometimes misty, deceptively hiding the violence that has racked the island for decades.

This is what makes Bud Datu special, a hilltop base just outside the small capital of Sulu province, which has seen the constant turnover of military posts as a strategic location. It was the military’s idea in recent years to turn this restricted area into a tourist spot. – See more at: http://www.gmanetwork.com/news/story/258172/lifestyle/travel/an-unlikely-tourist-attraction-in-sulu-province#sthash.6HD53r4Z.dpuf

The Capitol Building of Sulu is a truly admirable Islamic architecture. It’s prominent dome in a verdant landscape made me think of India’s Taj Mahal. I could not almost believe there is such a wonderful structure in that part of the map.

Common to most Islamic structures is the hemispherical roof. The building is comparable to the capitol buildings of Tawi-Tawi and Sultan Kudarat. I sufficed myself exploring the different angles of the building.  Read More:  http://trekero.blogspot.com/2014/06/sulu-provincial-capitol-magnificent.html
