I posted a Colon Street entry on April of last year. But it was only in the part of Cebu Business Hotel and University of the Visayas.

This is now in Gaisano Metro and Gaisano South area.

Colon Street sign.

Throngs of people in Colon Street sidewalk.

Sidewalk shops in Colon.

Oriente Cinema and Colonnade Mall.

New Cinema and Peter Go Building.

New Eden Theater, by the looking at the design of the building, this was probably built in the 1970s.

The old Vision theater, now a ticketing shop and other rental shops.

Getting closer to City Saving Bank. Ticket shops and stalls for passenger ships.

Number of people here have slightly gone down after the Ayala and other malls were built.

Shot just outside of City Savings Bank.

Crossing of Colon Street and Osmeña Boulevard.

Colon Street, the oldest street in the Philippines.

Sorry, just few photos, it’s not easy taking photos in the Colon area. This was taken during Christmas.

According to the plaque plastered in one of the building in the historic street:

Colon Street known also as The Parian, is the oldest street in the Philippines. It was built by the Spaniards who arrived at Cebu in 1565 on the fleet composed of the vessels San Pedro, San Pablo and San Juan under the command of Miguel Lopez de Legaspi.

The Colon Street quick history.

138 store. Formerly Plaza Fair during the 1990s.

The street turning on the right is Junquera, Cebu’s number one red light district, hahahaha.

Metro Gaisano, the busiest Gaisano according to my observation.

Gaisano Main. The very first Gaisano store, but now almost a ghost town. Mingaw na diri.

Fronting Gaisano Main is University of the Visayas.

University of the Visayas, the number one in Basketball, hehehe.
