Simala Shrine Cebu

If you are a Marian devotee, the monastery is the best place for you to visit because she is considered to be the home of the “miraculous” Birhen sa Simala. Furthermore, the monastery is the best place for you to meditate and say your prayers. It is believed that Virgin Mary cried blood on September 8, during her birthday – hence, the “miraculous” Virgin Mary. Being a devotee, you wouldn’t mind falling in line in order to meet and kiss the Virgin Mary as a sacrifice, even if it’ll take you an hour or so. However, just a friendly reminder; you should be wearing formal dresses to enter the monastery and let us all e mindful of our words and actions. Location: Sibonga, Southern Cebu — approx. 4 hours away from Mactan Airport. What to expect: Biggest church in Cebu, Home of the miraculous image of Mama Mary #urbanexplorer #maydaytrip
