Cebu City Philippines Temple

The Cebu City Philippines Temple is a house of worship for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints located in the Lahug district, featuring mountain grey granite stonework and an angel Moroni statue at its peak. The building sits on expansive grounds and houses multiple specialized rooms for religious services, including instruction areas, sealing chambers, and a baptismal font.

The site's construction began with a groundbreaking in November 2007, and it was dedicated in June 2010. Its establishment marked a major expansion of the church's presence in the Philippines at that time.

This site serves as a gathering place for members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints to participate in sacred religious ceremonies. Visitors can observe how the location functions as a spiritual center for the local community and its role in their religious practice.

The location is situated in a hilly area, so reaching it may require some travel time from central Cebu. Visitors should check opening hours in advance and wear appropriate clothing, as this is a religious site with specific dress codes for those entering.

The angel Moroni statue shifted during the 2013 Bohol earthquake and had to be repositioned to face east again. This event highlights how even solid structures in earthquake-prone areas can be affected by natural disasters.
