Elisha visits Fort Santiago, in Manila, built by the Spanish in 1590, which served as a military headquarter of Spanish, British, American, and Japanese regimes. Within vintage architecture and ruins, lies the reminder of Philippine’s dark history- the dungeons where countless Filipinos were tortured and executed, including Dr José Rizal – the Philippines’ national hero. 

Philippines's Dark Side 

The island of Bohol in Philippines is home to one of the world’s most unique landscapes, the Chocolate Hills - 1268 hills, jutting from the island which are all mysteriously identical in shape. In summers, as the grass dries up, the green hills turn brown and thus the name ‘Chocolate Hills’. During Elisha’s visit, the mesmerizing site leaves her spellbound.
