Night Walk

Beauty at night! the feeling of not crowded streets of a tourist spot in Lijiang. You can see the beauty of the place when it’s less people but sometimes you miss it when it’s crowded and busy. I think of that back when everything is normal. Most of my friends recommends staying at Shuhe Ancient Town as it is not so touristic place not like the Lijiang Old Town. I like this place more as it’s not too crowded and not fancy as the main town in Lijiang. The feeling of emptiness #urbanexplorer #shuheoldtown #lijiang #yunnan #china #explorewithtony #naturelover #adventure #life #photographersdayoff #leaveyourmark

Cables Caves Temples

Stunning view of the city when your riding the cable car! It’s defiantly a must when you travel to Kunming to get your best luck touching and asking for wishes at the Kunming dragon gate! it’s very historical site where Buddhist caves are carved and paths in this mountain. The place is kinda tiring to walk up but it’s a great experience and adding good memories. best not to wear slippers sharp rocks around. #urbanexplorer #dragongate #kunming #yunnan #china #explorewithtony #naturelover #adventure #life #photographersdayoff #leaveyourmark

Feels Local

Enjoying bread, ham and eggs for breakfast? Not when you travel to other country! When we are in Huahin we said that our breakfast will be only on this place! they have a good noodles soup plus a good milk tea! best to come early for breakfast or early for dinner because the line will be long! Best of Jek Piek Coffee Shop! Its a must try! #urbanexplorer #huahin #bangkok #thailand #china #explorewithtony #naturelover #adventure #life #photographersdayoff #leaveyourmark

Street

It looks like Macau’s Senado Square or Guangzhou’s Shangxiajiu Pedestrian street. Sun Wen Xi Road is located in the city of Zhongshan. it’s beautiful architectures brings you in the old west. Mostly southern part of China mostly Guangdong Province in each cities have there own version of East meets West feels because of overseas Chinese workers who works overseas likes to bring western ideas to there homeland. building that looks very well constructed and now very well preserved. #urbanexplorer #zhongshan #guangdong #guangzhou #china #explorewithtony #naturelover #adventure #life #photographersdayoff #leaveyourmark

The Cross & Church

Would you ever believe that the original cross from 1521 is still encased inside the wooden cross? That’s what experts says. Some people says it’s only a replica others says it’s destroyed. The cross is located in Magellan’s Cross besides Basilica Menor del Santo Niño de Cebu. Cebu’s famous history about Magellan and Lapu-Lapu as Lapu-Lapu is one of Philippines greatest heroes for his bravery to resist Spanish colonization. #urbanexplorer #cebu #mactan #philippines #china #explorewithtony #naturelover #adventure #life #photographersdayoff #leaveyourmark

It’s Perfect!

One of the most famous volcanoes in the Philippines is Mayon Volcano. It’s located in the province of Albay. A very popular destinations for tourists and its renowned as the perfect cone. Travel to Legaspi City from Cubao, Quezon City is about 10 hours by bus or you can choose by air travel which is faster but more expensive than taking a bus. To travel around, best is to rent a motorcycle for every destinations you want to go and you can stop anytime to take a photo not a hassle. Also don’t forget to taste and eat Bicol’s best “Bicol Express” #urbanexplorer #bicol #legaspi #philippines #china #explorewithtony #naturelover #adventure #life #photographersdayoff #leaveyourmark

Wheeewl!

One of the coolest open air shopping mall in Bangkok with cool amusements is at Asiatique The River Front. The time we went there is we get a free ferry ride in Saphan Taksin Station. While on the boat it feels like you got a free tour even the ride is very short. The shopping mall showcases a lot of local products that we all love also restaurants serves different cuisines that you can choose! Why travel to Thailand if your not choosing Thai food?! of course we choose Thai food! it’s Yum! #urbanexplorer #bangkok #asiatiquetheriverfront #thailand #china #explorewithtony #naturelover #adventure #life #photographersdayoff #leaveyourmark

It’s a nice one!

One of the most beautiful ancient villages I visited is Uygur Ancient Village. The village is very ancient with beautiful history. It feels like your playing assassins creed or watching the movie Aladdin. Takes you back in ancient times where the ancient silk roads or seeing markets around the area. Local people are still living in there as they are very welcoming people for tourists. I enjoyed taking photos in this place I only got a very short time to stay but I should visit again soon. #urbanexplorer #uygurancientvillage #turupan #xinjiang #urumqi #china #explorewithtony #naturelover #adventure #life #photographersdayoff #leaveyourmark

Temple of Wonders

One of the most important temples in Ayutthaya is Wat Phra Mahathat. It’s once glorious temple but still glorious standing today imagining the colorful place this temple was before. History is very rich that you can feel the atmosphere of the place. They said that the Buddha head is stolen by someone and forgotten that the bayan tree swallowed it and stays there for centuries. it’s like you the robbers cannot steal from them anymore.... Before I can only see the image of Buddha head in the tree roots on postcard, images on internet but now I see it and take my own photo of the Buddha. Wonders in memory. #urbanexplorer #thailand #ayutthaya #bangkok #china #explorewithtony #naturelover #adventure #life #photographersdayoff #leaveyourmark

The Dawn

A beginning of the new day! Very grateful to capture this shot in Zambales it’s around 5:45 AM roosters starting the calling and the smell of coconut husk burning it’s time to wake up and start shooting! The place around is for agricultural farming & raising livestocks also convert the place for agricultural tourism to have some experience on faming and playing within the animals. #urbanexplorer #zambales #agriculturaltourism #philippines #china #explorewithtony #naturelover #adventure #life #photographersdayoff #leaveyourmark

Shutter Island and other beaches

Have you ever watch the shutter Island? When I arrive the beach of San Antonio in Zambales looking at the amazing island of Capones! it’s so beautiful that I looks like the shutter island movie feels. The island is surrounded by white sand beach best to stay over night also an old Spanish era lighthouse where you can take 360 photos, but best capturing with drone! #urbanexplorer #capones #zambales #philippines #china #explorewithtony #naturelover #adventure #life #photographersdayoff #leaveyourmark

Sharks?

Oslob whale shark is the most tourist best attraction, you cannot leave Oslob without swimming with the whale sharks. best to go there early in the morning so you don’t have to wait for the long line. Whale sharks are kept safe and unharmed. They are well fed as marine biologist are on site monitoring the whales proper care. A must see when in Oslob! #urbanexplorer #oslob #cebu #philippines #whaleshark #china #explorewithtony #naturelover #adventure #life #photographersdayoff #leaveyourmark

Unlimited Gatorade

One of the best waterfalls around Oslob is in Ginatilan, Inambakan Falls is one of the bluest waterfalls and surrounded by forest. There are more waterfalls around this area but this one is the picturesque waterfall. but you have to pay entrance fee to get in for environmental use of the local to make the area clean. It’s 48 mins to get there cross the mountains or you can drive around the cost for one hour. #urbanexplorer #oslob #inambakanfalls #cebu #ginatilan #china #explorewithtony #naturelover #adventure #life #photographersdayoff #leaveyourmark

Adventurous Boat Ride!

Bangkok’s nearest un congested floating market Khlong Lat Mayong! It’s 10km east downtown of Bangkok you can ride the metro and take off Wongwian Yau station then take a taxi. also riding the boats I think you’ll have to pay 20Bath so it won’t take you too long to ride and no line to wait because there’s a lot of your boats that you can ride. We all wish the pandemic ends so we can have some delicious Thai food! SawadeeK! 🇹🇭 #urbanexplorer #KhlongLatMayong #bangkok #thailand #china #explorewithtony #naturelover #adventure #life #photographersdayoff

Bangkok in B&W

Capturing photos in black and white makes the scene dramatic but for me it’s opposite of Bangkok it’s a happy place for everything! I travel to Bangkok most I think that’s the most traveled country I ever been. Maybe because people are very generous and polite only once when the tuktuk driver ask us to go to some shops so he can get gasoline tickets from the shop but it’s kinda weird to do that and he get mad at us. But that’s an experience to know and won’t ever happen next time. life #urbanexplorer #bangkok #thailand #adventure #china #explorewithtony #naturelover #adventure #life #photographersdayoff #leaveyourmark

To Dali

Morning in Dali you’ll see the clouds shattering the sun rays hitting Erhai Lake and at night you’ll see alot of stars then rent a electric motorcycle to ride around Erhai Lake! Dali’s heart is the Erhai lake and everything that grows the lake is because of the Erhai lake. Enjoy watching farmers harvesting the food we eat. I think that life and living in Dali is a wonderful thing to be peaceful! #urbanexplorer #erhailake #dali #yunnan #china #explorewithtony #naturelover #adventure #life #photographersdayoff #leaveyourmark

SawadeeFood!

The food of Yumm! After long motorcycle ride driving around Huahin we want.... Pad Thai Omelets! Tom Yum Goong! Lemon Grass Juice! Thai food aroma makes every taste unique some spicy, some sour, some sweet some bitter but the best is the food preparation and presentation it’s like your watching bites of everything. Happiness! so before you grab and eat the food make a good snap of photo even your so hungry! #urbanexplorer #huahin #thailand #bangkok #china #explorewithtony #naturelover #adventure #life #photographersdayoff #leaveyourmark

Tea

Hangzhou’s historic city in China, its full of ancient pagodas and quiet temples. Love to walk around and drink tea also Hangzhou’s local food are not spicy I enjoy the taste it feels like home! Some friends says feels like grandma know and cooks the best! Its very close to Shanghai which is one hour train ride. #urbanexplorer #hangzhou #shanghai #zhejiang #china #explorewithtony #naturelover #adventure #life #photographersdayoff #leaveyourmark

Stop Look and Listen

Hua Hin Railway Station is considered as the most beautiful railway station in Thailand. It’s the most popular landmark in Hua Hin. Hua Hin is a bit far from Bangkok I think it takes 3-4 hours drive to get there. Its also cool to stop by small stores to buy snack for the road! Wait for the train! #urbanexplorer #huahin #tainstation #thailand #china #bangkok #explorewithtony #naturelover #adventure #life #photographersdayoff #leaveyourmark

Sunrise is Love!

Waking up early in the morning with full charged drone battery is the best fist thing to do! You’ll see how fishermen catch fish by the shore, capturing the landscape while the sunshine still not stunning bright. Oslob is kinda far from Mactan Airport by bus, the best way is to travel from Bohol then cross the sea to get to Oslob. Its enjoyable to see the chocolate hills and other attractions in Bohol. When in Oslob #urbanexplorer #philippines #cebu #oslob #china #explorewithtony #naturelover #adventure #life #photographersdayoff #leaveyourmark

First

When do you get excited? First time travel to Bangkok so I’m very prepared for everything. Packed bags, camera gears and go! It’s very fun to see other new cities and see the culture of the country. Very beautiful trip, I think it’s my first time to use Trip.com to book the flights and hotels on this trip! It’s worth to explore more places, new places #urbanexplorer #thailand #bangkok #trip.com #china #explorewithtony #naturelover #adventure #life #photographersdayoff #leaveyourmark

Old Time

Looking back to the future movie but it’s the Philippines version 100’s years ago! The place is very historical way back Spanish Period. Entering Las Casas you’ll feel the very old vibe of Manila when every staff is wearing barong and barotsaya, riding kalesa and eating authentic Filipino/Spanish food. I recommend going to Las Casas a bit pricy but it’s worth it! Its 3-4 hrs drive from Manila or you can direct flight from Guangzhou to Angeles Airport that’s the fastest travel I think when everything’s back to normal. #urbanexplorer #lascasasfilipinasdeacuzar #bagac #pampanga #philippines #china #explorewithtony #naturelover #adventure #life #photographersdayoff #leaveyourmark

Its fun!

We all miss traveling to Singapore! Singapore Laksa, Pepper Crab, airport shopping, it’s all about fun! fun! fun! We will be back soon! Singapore! #urbanexplorer #singapore #universalstudiosingapore #gardensbytgebay #marinabay #china #explorewithtony #naturelover #adventure #life #photographersdayoff #leaveyourmark

Speed!

I use to travel to Shanghai before pandemic doing video shoots of hotels. After work I walk around the city and take timelapse photographs I call it #thephotographersdayoff I shall return... one day! #urbanexplorer #shanghai #thebund #timelapse #china #explorewithtony #naturelover #adventure #life #photographersdayoff #leaveyourmark

Good Ice Cream! Good View!

have you ever tried chili ice cream? Bicol is best know for chili! so Bicolanos makes good cold and bit spicy ice cream! worth the try plus check out the view! best time to go Sumlang Lake is around 6AM or 5PM to have a perfect reflection of the volcano! #urbanexplorer #bicol #albay #daraga #china #explorewithtony #naturelover #adventure #life #philippines #photographersdayoff #leaveyourmark

The Speed and Sands

Explore the trails of Mayon Volcano riding ATV! it’s very fun to drive! Cross rivers, high and low hills! it’s worth the ride with ATV! Hassle free! #urbanexplorer #atv #philippines #albay #china #explorewithtony #naturelover #adventure #life #bicol #photographersdayoff #leaveyourmark #bagac #daraga

It’s Huge!

The biggest cave I’ve ever been! It’s located 45 mins south of Hua hin but the trail needs 30 mins more to reach the cave. Advice is to wear comfortable shoes and bring water and your good swimming clothes because after the trek you can swim by the beach! #urbanexplorer #huahin #thailand #thai #china #explorewithtony #naturelover #adventure #life #photographersdayoff #leaveyourmark

Heaven

Have you ever watched the movie Avatar? Based on James Cameron the floating Hallelujah Mountains were inspired in real place it’s Zhangjiajie National Forest Park! The place is so magical that you can wonder how on earth did this rock formation forms. Specially when the mountain and trees are covered with snow. This one is LUCKY SHOT also because on this time we are heading back home early in the morning. We are in the taxi going the train station then we saw the mountains covered with snow! the most special one! I’ll be back! #urbanexplorer #yuanshanping #lijiang #yunnan #china #explorewithtony #naturelover #adventure #life #photographersdayoff #leaveyourmark

Wonders of Oslob Cebu

The most adventurous trip in Cebu! Went to Oslob by bus then rented a motorcycle to ride around the town! Oslob’s amazing fun place to enjoy traveling and specially the foood! Lechon! We all miss traveling! #urbanexplorer #yuanshanping #lijiang #yunnan #china #explorewithtony #naturelover #adventure #life #photographersdayoff #leaveyourmark

Small Island Quick boat ride to this small island on the side of Fuxian Lake. People says that this island is visited by famous people way back the Ming Dynasty and called it a fairyland. The boat man even told us we can drink the water on the lake as it’s good to drink. #urbanexplorer #yuanshanping #lijiang #yunnan #china #explorewithtony #naturelover #adventure #life #photographersdayoff #leaveyourmark
