LOBOC, BOHOL
Loboc is a charming hilly town along the Loboc River. But situated along the river has its drawbacks. On typhoons when rain pours down for days, the river would break out of its banks and flood the whole town, sometimes completely submerging houses along the banks. If not typhoons, earthquake could hit the town - one of which destroyed the beautiful Loboc Church (already reconstructed). The Loboc Children's Choir, is famous throughtout Bohol and has won numerous competitions both domestic and international.
