Here’s a virtual tour of fun things to do in Negros Occidental

With its natural and man-made attractions, it’s no wonder Negros Occidental is known as the “Land of Sweet Surprises.”

In a segment of GMA-7’s “Unang Hirit,” Filipino-Pakistani vlogger Sam Pervaiz and his travel buddy Anne Castillo took viewers on a virtual tour around Talisay and Bacolod.

If you’re looking for some outdoor fun, Campuestohan Highland Resort in Talisay is a must-see.

Visitors can choose from various open-air activities, including ziplining!

History buffs who wish to learn about Negros Occidental’s rich culture can visit the majestic San Sebastian Cathedral and The Ruins in Talisay.

For those who didn’t know, Bacolod is also famous for its yearly MassKara Festival.

As large gatherings are off the table amid the current COVID-19 situation, Sam and Anne took viewers on a one-on-one mask-making date with mask designer Jojo Vita.

Of course, what’s a virtual tour without learning everything there is to know about the province’s most famous dish, chicken inasal?
