Faith and Beauty: A Visit to Simala Shrine, Cebu

May 28, 2025
It is about a two-hour drive from Cebu City.
There was no entrance fee.
Perhaps because it was the beginning of the year, it was quite crowded.
There was a particularly long line to enter the church, so I gave up going inside.
Please note that since it is a church, you cannot enter in revealing clothing.
Candles are sold, and there is a place where you can make offerings outside and pray.
The exterior of the church is as impressive as visiting a castle in medieval Europe.
It was larger than I imagined, and very impressive.
In addition, the building and scenery are beautiful, so it is also a photogenic spot.
It is said that wishes will come true through the Virgin Mary, and although I was not able to go there, there seems to be a real statue of Mary on the second floor of the main hall.
When you visit, why not convey your wish?
