There is a hotel in downtown Cebu famed for keeping the Sugbuanon history and culture alive in this modern era!
Located at the heart of the Queen City of the South, the Palm Grass Hotel is one of the few establishments that not only showcases Filipino-inspired designs in their amenities but also hosts events and activities that keeps the new generation informed about the essential Cebuano background and heritage. In fact, it is hailed as the “Only Heritage Hotel in Cebu!”
Almost weekly, the hotel holds events, discussions, competitions, and presentations centered around the beautiful and creative history of Cebu and the Philippines. The latest one was a hybrid event tackling the historical events leading to the destruction and demolition of the Spanish-era Parian Parish. The best part about their discussions is that it’s spearheaded by certified historians and experts on each varying topic; making each stay at the hotel beyond just for comfort but also for education.
The Importance of Talking About the Past
Yes, it may be important to move forward, but one would not be able to know what to improve on and what to avoid without looking into and considering the events of the past; which is why learning about the Sugbuanon history is vital. By reflecting on historical events, we gain valuable insights into the successes and failures of previous generations, helping us to make informed decisions in the present. Understanding the Sugbuanon history enriches our cultural identity, fosters a sense of community, and provides lessons that can guide future actions.
Additionally, acknowledging past struggles and achievements allows us to honor and preserve our heritage, ensuring that the experiences and wisdom of those who came before us are not lost but rather serve as a foundation for continued growth and development.
