Anthony Jacinto from Bacolod City came to Cebu City as a domestic tourist, accompanied by his wife and two teenaged daughters. One of the places he had wanted to see is the city’s subway or underground tunnel which he said many people in his place are talking about.

“Unfortunately,” he said, “we were not able to see the subway as the car we were riding in was not allowed to enter the tunnel.” Anthony said they were told to use the road above the subway. “Sayang,” he said. “It was a chance for us to see the tunnel and later brag about our experience.”
