The Taj Mahal of Cebu

This is the Temple of Leah, a Roman-inspired architectural temple located in Barangay Busan in Cebu City, Philippines.

The story behind this temple is fascinating. Teodorico Soriano Adarna had the temple built for his late wife Leah Albino Adarna, the grandmother of Filipina actress Ellen Adarna.

According to the actress, the temple was not built to be a tourist spot but a storage for her grandmother's things. But since the view from up there is nice, they made it open for public.

There's nothing much to do here, this can be a quick stop when visiting Cebu.
