Admin's list:

Here are my suggestions. You are free to comment on this list.

    Tips:

     - When adding a place be sure to select the appropriate category like restaurant, bakeshop, etc.

     - If possible, please provide details like office hours, if it is a restaurant of a food establishment you can provide its specialty and/or suggested budget.

     - Also, provide a means of transportation (by tricycle, by van, etc.) and the minimum fare.

     - We can also add pictures of the place so that tourists will have an idea what the place looks like.

     - If the place or establishment has a website or telephone number, you can include it. 
      
     - If you know that the establishment accepts credit cards or Cheque please add it to the details.

     - And most of all, provide a good review about the place :-)


    "By promoting local tourism we are boosting the local economy. By mapping our locality we are mapping its future". Happy mapping!
