Basilica Minore del Santo Nino

At night, the Basilica del Santo Niño in Cebu emanates a majestic and serene atmosphere. The facade is often illuminated, highlighting its Spanish colonial architecture, while soft lights create a tranquil ambiance around the church ground. The surrounding areas may feature gentle night sounds, contributing to a peaceful and spiritual experience.

It was nice to visit Basilica Minore del Santo Nino. Lots of people are going there to pray and lit a candle. You can also see some Saints Relics inside the Church. It was.also nice to attend the.mass outside the church building because it was celebrated in an open air. You can also see.the famous Magellan's Cross.

The interior of the church is simple and generous, and the sun shines through the windows into the church, making people feel more sacred, and making the portrait of Christ on the ceiling more lifelike. According to local friends, the clothes worn by the statue of the Virgin inside are all made of gold. Very beautiful and ancient city. Worth a visit.

This church has always been our first stop whenever we visit Cebu. We have been going to Cebu since 1990s to attend the Sinulog festival. I love this church because despite its huge size, the calmness and silence is still present. It just means that the people are really there to pray and reflect. The cleanliness of the Church has been maintained also as well as the peace and order. I really recommend this Church to anybody visiting Cebu.

Basilica Minore Del Sto. Niño is known as the oldest Catholic Church in Cebu. The church houses the image of the Sto. Niño, the city’s patron saint that represents Jesus as a black Holy Child. It is also a place for prayer and pilgrimage to a large number of people each year.
