ROXAS City, Capiz 

               A lighthouse is meant to guide seafarers at night but the city government here sees it as another tourist spot.
One Capiz, a group of concerned Capiceños, with the help of the Roxas City government aims to beautify the Culasi lighthouse and its surroundings aside from making it more accessible to visitors, according to Architect Margie Maestro of the City Engineer’s Office.

Maestro said a P3-million budget from the Department of Transportation and Communications which was transferred to the city government will be used to construct a view deck and a 375- meter pathway to the lighthouse.

The design conceptualized by 5th year architecture students of the Capiz State University (CapSU) will be incorporated into the beautification of the lighthouse with some modifications due to budget constraints.
The services of Engr. Joel Alado, Tourism Infrastructure and Enterprise Zone Authority consultant, were also hired to help in the project implementation.

The United Architects of the Philippines also proposed a master plan for the development of the lighthouse.
