About this spot
Dubbed the 'Taj Mahal of Cebu', this grand Roman-style temple in the Busay hills was built by Teodorico Adarna as a symbol of his undying love for his late wife, Leah. Expect sweeping staircases, a giant bronze statue of Leah, lion sculptures and a view of the city below. Romantic backstory, very Instagrammable, and a staple of the Cebu uphill tour.
