The Top 12 Things to Do in Cebu, Philippines
Make a Pilgrimage to the Santo Niño Basilica
The Basílica Minore del Santo Niño (Minor Basilica of the Holy Child) stands on the site of a "miraculous" discovery.
In 1565, an icon of the child Jesus was found in the smoldering remains of a native village that was burned down by the Spanish for their impertinence.
What to do in cebu city for a day
Ever since that momentous discovery, the Santo Niño ("Holy Child" in Spanish) has served as Cebu’s foundational icon, the center of local worship, and the basis for Cebu’s biggest festival, Sinulog.
A shrine immediately to the left of the Basilica del Santo Niño's gilded altar contains
the 500-year-old Santo Niño icon, which leaves its niche once a year for Sinulog.
At the nearby Pilgrim Center, a tiny museum houses centuries-old sacred vestments, Bibles, missals, Mass accessories, and donations from devotees. Several shelves hold donated toys, supposedly for the child Jesus' enjoyment!
Throw candles for luck at Magellan’s Cross
