Cebu: Touristy Locations

Other than the beaches, Cebu City, like any other city, has touristy locations for anyone to visit and see. 


City centre. Near the Saintoninio church. 





Inside the church grounds. Its a beautiful garden!




Majellan's Cross. A monument to recognise Majellan for bringing in Christianity to the Phillipines.




This is the only air conditioned church in Cebu. Thus, lotsa wedding are held here. 



If not, this Fort is also a popular wedding location. Due to the gorgeous garden of course.




The only Taoist temple in Cebu.




And Lapur Lapur's shrine. He was a hero for killing Majellan. Just cos he's a foreigner. Haha the irony.




Ormena's Gallery. His face is on the 50 pesos note. =D 



Some souvenir shops. Cheap cheap shopping!




Casa Gorordo. An ancetral house turned museum. My friend's grandma used to live there during World War II. Cool huh? 



Another ancestral home nearby Casa Gorordo.




The oldest fire station in Cebu.



The largest sculpture placed right smack in the middle of the road. Its supposed to represent the history of the Cebu across the multiple figurines. 



And lastly, Imperial Palace Hotel. A 7 star hotel opened by Koreans. It has a mini water park in it, and all the staff they hire are good looking! No shit. 


A proper tour would only require two full days really. So a weekend getaway to Cebu is worth seeing, non? =)
