2. Great Santa Cruz Island - Great Santa Cruz Islandis a small inhabited island in Zamboanga City in the southern region of the Philippines that is famous for its pink coralline sand. The island, located 4 kilometres (2.49mi) south of downtown at the Santa Cruz Bank in the Basilan Strait, boasts the only pink sand beach in the Philippines. The color of the sand comes from the pulverized red organ pipe coral from eons of surf erosion mixed with the white sand. The island started to become popular since the 1970s and early 1980s when German, Japanese and Italian tourists frequented it. Recently, there's an upsurge of tourists that have been recorded due to its rising popularity as one of a handful of Pink Sand Beaches in the World and is the only one in Asia. In 2017, it was recognized by National Geographicas one of the21 Best Beaches in the World.
3. Fort Pilar - The Real Fuerza de Nuestra Señora del Pilar de Zaragoza(Royal Fort of Our Lady of the Pillar of Saragossa), also Fort Pilar, is a 17th-century military defense fortress built by theSpanish colonial government in Zamboanga City,Philippines. The fort, which is now a regional museum of theNational Museum of the Philippines, is a significant landmark of the city and symbol of its cultural heritage. Outside the eastern wall is a Marianshrine dedicated to Our Lady of the Pillar, the patroness of the city. In 1635, upon the requests of the Jesuit missionaries and Bishop Fray Pedro of Cebu, the Spanish governor of the Philippines Juan Cerezo de Salamanca(1633 - 1635) approved the building of a stone fort in defense against pirates and raiders of the sultans of Mindanao and Jolo. The corner stoneof the fort, originally called Real Fuerza de San José(Royal Fort of Saint Joseph), was laid by Melchor de Vera, a Jesuit priest-engineer, on June 23, 1635, which also marks the founding of Zamboanga as a city, then known asJambangan. The construction of the early fort continued within the governorship ofSebastián Hurtado de Corcuera(1635–1644), ex-governor of Panama. Because of insufficient manpower, laborers from Cavite,Cebu,Bohol, and Panay had to be imported to help the Spaniards, Mexicans and Peruvians in the construction of the fort. This period also marks the beginning of the Zamboangueño Chavacano as a pidgin that eventually developed into a full-fledged creole language for Zamboangueños.
