Cebu City's most famous landmark is Magellan's Cross: planted onApril 14th,
1521 by Ferdinand Magellan himself , this wooden cross marks the spot where
the first Christian Filipinos, Rajah Humabon and Queen Juana and about 400 followers
were baptized by Fr. Pedro Valderama.
Fort San Pedro, the oldest tri-bastion fort in the country which served as the
nucleus of the first Spanish settlement in the Philippines.
A tour inside the Casa Gorordo Museum is a real journey into a Filipino lifestyle
in a particular period between 1860 to 1920. Even the Fort San Pedro National
Museum is surely worth a visit.
The Southwestern University Museum gives a great look of Cebuano art and lifestyle,
from the prehistoric to hispanic times.
Cebu City is also host to the popular Sinulog festival, held every third Sunday
of January in honor of Santo Niño, the "Holy Child".
The seaside in the island is really great, unforgettable and full of different
places to discover and enjoy.
