Guadalupe, Cebu

Built by the province’s Chinese community in 1972, the Taoist temple in Cebu is a towering religious center open to worshippers and non-worshippers of Taoism alike. Devotees often visit the temple to pray for the gods to grant their wish. One of their rituals includes climbing 81 steps (one for each chapter of the Taoist scripture) to light an incense.
Even if you’re a non-devotee, the Taoist Temple is still a great vacation stop. You might find yourself in awe of its entrance, which is a copy of the Great Wall in China. Lastly, you can also enjoy a magnificent view of downtown Cebu from the temple’s balconies.
Cebu’s Taoist Temple is just 2.9 kilometers away or a 10-minute drive away from Camella’s house and lot community in Guadalupe.

Lapu-Lapu City

Lapu-Lapu is one of the biggest cities that make up Metro Cebu. That said, it is home to many five-star resorts and beaches such as Shangri-La’s Mactan Resort and Spa, Plantation Bay Resort and Spa, and Crimson Resort and Spa. Add to that list the Bluewater Maribago Beach Resort, Costabella Tropical Beach Resort, Vista Mar Beach Resort and Country Club, and so much more.
From affordable to luxurious resorts, Lapu-Lapu for sure has all that to offer. Lapu-Lapu also has a long line of establishments—perhaps one reason is that the airport is within the City.

The Mactan Shrine is famous, not just as a part of Cebu but also as a landmark in Philippine history. It is a heritage spot in Lapu-Lapu City that features the expedition led by Ferdinand Magellan that led to the discovery of Cebu.
Here, we can also see the Lapu-Lapu Shrine—a bronze statue illustrating a warrior with a sword and a wooden shield. Lapu-Lapu was the great leader and ruler of the Mactan Island who stood up against the Spanish Colonizers.
