Mandaue, has always been my second home. My wife, a true blue Mandauehanon, help me discover and witnessed the true beauty of Mandaue. Mandaue city is known to be the home of industrial and export company but it has its own share of history in Cebu.



The old "Municipio" has only one storey. In late 70's the second floor was constructed.










National Shrine of St. Joseph houses the"Señor de Cena", a life size statues of Jesus and his 12 Apostles. These hundred years old replica is said to be the only one of a kind in the whole world.









Cebu International Convention Center
Built last April 2006 for the 12th Asian Summit.
Mandauehanon are really proud of their city which is tagged to be an industrial hub of Cebu. Hopefully Mandaue City will also be known for its rich in history and heritages.





Fiesta Señor is celebrated every 3rd Sunday of January.The feast is in honor of the holy image of Señor Sto. de Cebu. Sinulog is Cebu's biggest and most popular festival where people converge along the routes of the procession and partake in the gaiety amidst a Mardi-gras type parade immersed in the wild-colored costumes with constant beating of drums.

Prayer to the Sto. Niño

O Most Amiable Jesus, humblest and yet the greatest, the poorest and yet the richest, the weakest and yet the most powerful, do bless us and protect us for thou has reigned in virtues, our guide in all our endeavors, and our strength in times of sorrow.

By becoming like a Child Lord Jesus, you proved that you're not a far God, but someone close to us being together with us in the stark realities of life. indeed, your generous kindness goes beyond our merits and fondest hopes of our prayers. Shower us your love. Forgive us the sins of which our consciences are afraid, and grant us the blessings we dare not even ask for. With all the fervor of our soul, hear our prayer. Amen.
