Masbate is one Province of the Philippines those posses’ different beautiful places. The people on it are shown a hospitality to their guess and visitors as well as local and international tourist. The province was composing of 22 municipalities including one component city, Masbate City. It is founded on March 10, 1917.
There are many establishment and architectures that build during Spaniard era here in the Philippines that still standing until now. One of this is the Jintotolo Light House. This Light House will be found on Jintotolo Island in Municipality of Balud. It was in 1890s and has a focal plane of 57 meters with 3 white flashes every 10 seconds. It's beautiful especially when you are on the top part pf lighthouse. If weather is awesome you will see the beauty of Panay Island, one of the historical islands in the Philippines during Spanish era.
Jintotolo Lighthouse in present was still visited by international tourist because it can really attract attention of those people who travel in Visayan sea. There are still school (local or out of town) that still makes it as thier field trip destination. There are many events during Spanish era that happen in that island that I can't explain but my father knows it because he is a native of Jintotolo Island.
