Sinulog is the biggest festival in the Philippines. The Festival lasts 9 days and on the final day the Grand Parade is held. The festival celebrates Santo Nino (Jesus the holy child.) The entire city turns into one huge part. For miles and miles the streets are flooded with people. As we walked down the streets of Cebu we could hear music coming from every, house, apartment and condo. The parade was very colorful with dancers, drummers and floats. Every side street was filled with food vendors, henna tattoo artists and attendees celebrating the festival. Pictures cannot possibly describe the atmosphere of this event but I posted a picture I found online.
