If you are looking for a historical place to visit in Cebu, then aside from the Magellan’s Cross in the center of the city, Fort San Pedro is definitely worth seeing. You can explore it in just half a day.

3-4 hours would be enough time to learn an important slice of the history of the Queen City of the South and you’ll have the afternoon to maybe have a picnic at the Plaza Independencia right in front of it if the weather is okay or just cool off in SM or Ayala.

You have to pay an Entrance fee and opening hours are from 8AM to 6PM. It is advisable you go on a weekday to avoid the crowd and fully enjoy the now museum-park structure. Weekends are still okay though, but be prepared to encounter more tourists. Read more: https://jauntexpress.wordpress.com/tag/fort-san-pedro/

The statue of this local hero is made of bronze standing on top of bricks and concrete pedestal.

The size of the statue is over-sized, which I believe to emphasize or express his greatness and bravery.

Lapu-Lapu’s statue simply shows a figure wearing a native attire holding tight a ‘kampilan’ (a sword) on his right hand and a shield on his left. Read More: http://www.cebu-bluewaters.com/cebu-lapu-lapu.html
