THE ILOILO ESPLANADE

Saranggani Representative Manny "Pacman" Paquiao and Senator Franklin Drilon together with the local government officials of Iloilo inaugurated the Iloilo Esplanade last, Saturday, August 18, 2012.  It is the project of the latter that started its development since 2011.  The 1.2 kilometer esplanade is a recreational place for walking and jogging.  There is also aerobic activity during early in the morning and late afternoon hours.  The esplanade was designed by the international renowned architect Paulo Alcazaren who developed the Singapore wharf and it's where the name was inspired at the same time.




As one of those curious people, I visited the Iloilo's newest park yesterday.  Cleanliness is properly observed and maintained.  There are local policemen roaming around to secure the safety of the visitors.  I hope there are some public toilets to build.


I found a coffee shop under the bridge.  It is a relaxing place to watch the sunset at the same time.


Iloilo esplanade is a new place for fitness-conscious individuals.  Aside from viewing decks, there will be food stalls and floating restaurants that will standout soon.
