San Sebastian Church Highlights: Must-See Features and Attractions
Some information may have been translated by Google Translate
A grand Cathedral devoted to San Sebastian located in Manila was build in 1921 by a rich and religious patron who donated both the land and money. However, thirty years later the church was destroyed by fire during a Chinese uprising. It was rebuild but destroyed by an earthquake or fire again and a few times after that. In the end in 1891 after loosing four churches over 250 years the church leaders decided to put an end to the destruction and they developed a Cathedral entirely out of pre-fab steel which is the first and only building to be constructed with this material in Asia to this day. More than a century later and the church hasn't experience not even a dent to its structure. The beauty of this church comes alive from its faulted ceilings, glimmering stained-glass and Gothic spires which inspire wedding planners to bring their clients towards to this gorgeous and strong church.

The church it's so beautiful and the color of the light passing inside from the colorful glass windows it's magnificent
The Church of Saint Sabatian is a beautiful historical building in the Quaapo district of Manila, with lots of beautiful painted glass inside and a Christmas tree outside the church. This is the perfect church for my dream wedding! When the wedding photos came out, many people thought I was having a wedding in Europe. The interior design was truly amazing. The audience was very solemn against the intricate details of the interior of the All Steel Church. I was lucky to have a wedding in my favorite church! Dream come true!
Over 300 years of history, the Catholic Church of Saint Sabas was built in the Spanish colonial era. The architectural style of ancient Europe is a very sacred Catholic Church. The ceiling in the church and the decorations and sculptures on the walls are exquisite works.
Church built on the Spanish Era. The Architectural design is amazing and elegant .
