The Heritage of Cebu Monument is a huge piece of art packed with the history of Cebu. It is a spectacular monument that uses various materials such as brass, bronze, and concrete to depict famous scenes from the Spanish colonial period to Philippine independence!
Scenes that are essential to talking about Cebu, such as the baptism of Rajah Humabon, the Battle of Mactan, and the arrival of Magellan, are realistically reproduced. In addition, there are replicas of Cebu's representative tourist spots such as the Santo Niño Church and Magellan's Cross! You will feel like you have entered history♪
This monument was created by the famous Filipino sculptor Edgardo Castrillo over a period of more than three years and was completed at the end of 2000. The magnificent monument stands on a narrow triangular site, and you will surely be overwhelmed by its power! It is also perfect for commemorative photos📸
Nearby, you will also find Colon Street, the oldest street in Cebu, and the former residence of Yap San Diego, one of the oldest houses in the Philippines, making it a perfect area for historical exploration. If you are visiting Cebu, please stop by♪
