Since the pandemic set in and community quarantines have been implemented, I have never left home beyond 7pm, more so I have very rarely stayed outside beyond 8pm. I miss the plaza and Roxas City's Heritage Zone, and the wonderful landscape and the play of lights and colours. I miss strolling at the heart of the city or crossing the century-old bridge amidst the crisp nighttime breeze that refreshes the senses and reenergizes one to face the next day. The interactive light display installed on the city's heritage structure: the Catholic church, bridge, fountain, city hall, capitol, bandstand, fountain and museum, is a wonderful spectacle and the changing of lights is a must-see highlight when dusk settles. I hope you enjoy these shots of the city center, which I took some time in February 2020.
A walk from Roxas City to the Heritage Zone begins by crossing this century-old Capiz bridge. This beautiful view welcomes you.
