"Temple of Leah in Cebu Transcentral highway is another must-see attraction you should visit when in Cebu City if you love architecture or simply a good old love story. The structure takes inspiration from the Greek and Roman architecture, and it shows from its grand staircase to its various decors like the brass angels and statues of huge lions.
The story behind the Temple of Leah is also quite fascinating as its facade. Name as the Taj Mahal of Cebu; the temple is built by Teodorico Soriano Adarna, one of the old money families in the city, in 2012 as a symbol of his undying love for his wife.
Inside the temple, there are a total of 24 chambers including an art gallery, a library, and an impressive museum. It also houses the personal belongings and favorite things of Leah, the wife." - from SouthPole Central Hotel

"Cebu has a lot of history with structures that date back hundreds of years, including the Fort San Pedro, which is another popular tourist spot in the city. It is the oldest fort you can find in the Philippines.
The Fort San Pedro was built by General Miguel Lopez de Legazpi, a Spanish leader, to use as a protection against the Muslim warriors. It was also used by other colonizers but for a somewhat different reason. During the American colonial period, the Fort San Pedro became their residence as well as a place where they educated the Cebuanos.
During the Japanese era, the fort was used as a barrack, a hospital, and prison." - from SouthPole Central Hotel

"In a more elevated spot in Cebu, particularly in the Busan area, you can get a quite similar feel when traveling in the highlands and fields in the Netherlands. The Sirao Flower Garden is one of Cebu’s best outdoor spot and tourist attraction. This place is named and quite popularly called as “The Little Amsterdam.” It features a wide field of “Burlas” as called by the locals or more commonly known as celosia.
The flowers in the garden are of different colors of red, yellow, purple, and orange, which all in all, are very fascinating to look at.
Making it more scenic, the Siarao Flower Garden put up a windmill, and with the combination of cool wind, this place offers a unique touristy feel for everyone."
