The government will build the next Tourist Rest Area in Bohol to provide convenience to the growing number of tourists visiting the island province, which is home to the world-renowned Chocolate Hills and one of the world’s smallest primate – the tarsiers.
One of the most visited destinations in Central Visayas, Bohol offers a wide range of tourist spots and activities for history buffs, beach lovers, and adrenaline junkies alike. As of September 30, Bohol has logged more than 222,000 visitors, or a 24 percent increase vis-à-vis the 179,000 recorded in 2021, and 177,000 in 2020.
“The marching order of President Ferdinand Marcos, Jr. is to improve the overall tourist experience, and with this Tourist Rest Area, we hope to provide our tourists a stress-free and convenient journey. The provision of this basic service is a building block in ensuring that your government can sustain a strong tourism industry and economic prosperity for all the communities that depend on it,” Secretary Frasco said, speaking in Cebuano.
In her speech the tourism chief noted the pivotal role that the local leaders play in pursuing tourism development that is not only progressive, but sustainable as well. The Tourist Rest Areas are to be built in strategic locations across the country in partnership with the DOT’s infrastructure arm, the TIEZA.
