Experience Skywalking

Heights have always been scary! Well, at least for me. I have always seek opportunities to conquer this fear. So I grabbed the chance in one of my local travels to the Philippines Queen City of the South - Cebu.

Right in the heart of Cebu metropolis rises the tallest hotel tower - The Crown Regency Hotel. It boasts of the first extreme skywalk adeventure in the country. In one of my travels there with my friends, we jumped into the chance of doing this crazy thrill.

The skywalk adeventure costs Php600/person, including a dinner buffet. We made sure we did the skywalk first because we didn't want to be throwing up everything we've eaten for dinner. The view of the whole of Cebu City was spectacular from the 40th storey floor of the hotel. Around the building, they built a platform of about 2 meters, which is half metal and half fiberglass. We donned on a suit and put our safety harness before stepping on into the platform. I thought it would be an easy feat! But I felt the jitters and my legs were like jelly, I was frozen to the spot and can't take the first step. The guide helped me and after a while, I actually enjoyed every moment of it. Photos were taken in different poses. It was simply an awesome experience!
