CROSSING THE SAN JUANICO BRIDGE
![]() |
towards Leyte- view from Samar |
As a reiteration of my childhood dream, one of those is to be able to cross that longest bridge in the Philippines and take a lot of photos while on it.
Important facts we should know about the bridge:
a. This is the longest bridge in the Philippines connecting two provinces: Samar and Leyte, that spans a body of seawater;
b. This is one of the gifts that the former President Marcos gave to the people of Tacloban and to the former first lady, Imelda Romualdez, who is a resident of Leyte;
c. The bridge is designed with the letter S coming from Samar and converts itself to the letter L, upon entering Leyte - commencing from the signage which welcomes you to Leyte;
d. It took almost four years to construct the bridge (1969-1973) and
e. It is considered as one of the most beautifully designed bridges in the Philippines.
