A fishing village before - now most developed province in the Philippines. It is located right in the heart of the Philippines. The name "Cebu" came from the old Cebuano word sibu or sibo ("trade"). It is the center of Visayan-Cebuano culture and has preserved a strong Spanish tradition in its cultural life. Before the arrival of Spaniards in 1521, Cebu was part of the rajahnate and trade center of Kangdaya. Ferdinand Magellan arrived in April 1521. He was killed at the Battle of Mactan. Spanish conquistadors under leadership of Miguel Lopez de Legaspi came back some 45 years later, took possession of the island for the king of Spain, named the village “Villa del San Miguel de Cebu” and fortified it later by building Fort San Pedro, today one of the main tourist attractions in the city.
