Nice place to visit. But always bring your umbrella it might get to hot.
This marks the Spanish colonization in the Philippines. Though Magellan's Final Voyage, it is one of the most successful expedition in History. They have proven that the world is not flat.!
Learn about the rich history of Mactan by visiting the Statue of Lapu-Lapu and the spot where Ferdinand Magellan actually died.
Well-maintained and secured park. Nothing much to do aside for taking photos and buying souvenirs. The place is most beautiful at night.
We just take taxi to the place. Sincerely, I think you can just take photos and leave. It will not cost you lots of time.
The most photographed structure in Cebu. It's like you've never been to Cebu if you've never been here.
Easy walk from the Shangri-la. The monument is guarded on all sides of the location so no one really bothers you to eat at the seafood stands or to take day trips. The prices given at the craft stands are fair prices to tourists. Around keychains are around 10 php. Magnets are 3 for 50 php. Shirts are under 100 php. There is a statue, monument and photo backdrops to take pictures at. Bring water, it's hot in the summer.
On the outside there are stands but they sell the same thing and people will bother you to go eat at a seafood place. So it's a nicer shopping experience in the center with the monument.
Also if you decide to walk like we did from our hotel, be cautious. A lot of people will ask you if you want a ride or to island hop and will follow you a bit.
Very historic Place a Brave man on Spanyard year.
Old sea food market nearby. But the quality of food was dropping. Not recommend unless improvement seen.
If you love history it's a great place to check out. Gorgeous scenery right by the ocean.
