The 2012 Sinulog Festival, Cebu City, Philippines


The Sinulog Festival is one of the grandest festivals in the country. It is celebrated on the 3rd Sunday of January. It shows the fervent devotion of Cebuanos to the child Jesus. It is probably the most celebrated occasion after the Holiday season. And once again, the Sinulog 2012 was celebrated with so many activities from day one until the street-dancing showdown of the out-of-town contingents. This year's street-dancing competition was joined by different participants from neighboring cities and provinces.
