Kalibo Cathedral, Catholic cathedral in downtown Kalibo, Philippines
The Saint John the Baptist Cathedral features tall columns, high-ceiling nave, and stained glass windows depicting religious figures throughout its interior spaces.
Established as a mission by Augustinian friars in 1581, the cathedral moved to its current location in 1804 after the town relocated from Barrio Laguinbanua.
During January's Ati-Atihan Festival, the cathedral becomes central to celebrations with street dancing, parades, and religious ceremonies honoring Santo Niño.
The cathedral maintains regular mass schedules throughout the week and provides guided tours for groups who wish to explore its architectural features.
National artist Leandro V. Locsin incorporated modern construction techniques while preserving traditional church elements in the cathedral's architectural design.
