From Naga, Cebu Province I rode a bus going to Cebu City but I dropped off at Tabunok, Talisay City. From there, I rode a tricycle going to the Poblacion area where the church and munisipyo (municipal hall) is located.
The Talisay City Church is also known as Sta Teresa de Avila Church. Similar to other churches in Cebu Province, the Sta Teresa de Avila Church is all painted in white. It also has two belfries so it’s really symmetrical. Right across the street from the church you’ll find the Talisay City Hall where a monument both to Jose Rizal and Andres Bonifacio can be found.
From Talisay City, I rode a mini-bus back to Cebu City.
St Joseph the Worker Parish Church, Tabunok, Talisay City. It’s along the highway going to Cebu City from Carcar City.
The façade of Sta Teresa de Avila Church in Talisay City is painted all-white and has two belfries. It also has classical theme by the use of columns.
