I went to this place last March and it was so beautiful....I prefer u would go at night because the city lights of Cebu is so pretty and the air is so fresh...^_^

[@Megafloejoe]

why do people always think of negative things to say. If you have a negative opinion please keep it to yourself. Like someone says this is a private property which I can see looks like a potential income and open to businesses someday. But no one can deny the beauty and the massive architectures taken place. Once it's done I'm sure it will be grand and impressive as it is now.

[@juancarrera657]

megafloejoe dajay 👍🏻

[@firstchirriru]

I'm going to visit this when I arrive in Cebu for sure! such a great story such a nice couple and family. Imagine open to the public to sight seeing because they want to show the real love and what is love is all about even if your love one is no longer in this world. Mabuhay Philippines! Mabuhay Cebu at Mabuhay ang Temple of Leah.

[@poolboyinla]

I just visited Temple of Leah.

[@Bebegroot]

Adobong manacccccc

[@markbarker6739]

I was there late December 2018 and its most impressive who cares who built it or why or where it is an expression of love maybe one day it will be regarded as a great loving monument like the Taj Mahal in India is today

[@JuanAlmighty]

this place will always be special to me. kasi dito ako nagpropose.

[@jewelesquivel9423]

[@CebuCityTour]

This is located in #cebu - Busay. Our guest love to go here in this tour site. Just to give you advise that this temple has Php50.00 entrance fee. It is a good place for viewing the whole city of Cebu.

[@aidawilson3125]

Is there a place to dine there?

[@CebuCityTour]

There is a place to dine close to that area. The restaurant is called Lantaw.

mayaman talaga ang pamilya nila Ellen Adarna sila mn tag iya sa Temple of Leah

[@ahmadgsjsjdhhhhgffjh1756]

Wowwwww,hanip sa Ganda.

[@trexkiro9200]

I would like to see it when its finished, I bet it'll look better than how it looks now. I love the Roman architecture and design. Those Roman soldier Statues really makes the place more European looking. It almost looks like a place in Rome. :)

[@Shibestrike]

Hellenic primarily. Many of the design features such as the animals, murals, statues, swastika patterns are Iranic as well, which is interesting. Not to say Hellenic designs didn’t incorporate some of those things as time went on, and all the Indo-Europeans used the swastika. It’s not an eastern thing specifically, but they used it a lot in architecture.

[@user-ev4je1mc3g]

Galing na ako dito

[@jeffersonporo5713]

very nice to know if more exciting developments will commence can surely help attract more tourist to come

[@BoyerzUrashima]

that was before during construction i went there once but i heard there is now after the site is complete :)

[@philippinelegendaries1909]

If it's really beautiful, I won't complain paying P50. Another thing is that, it's not government owned, it's not a public matter.

[@mama-pd3ci]

[@comeonmate3743]

Ask the taxi driver on the airport that your going to the temple of Leah. When you’re done doing your tour, just ask the Habal2x driver that you want to go downtown.

[@daywalker6002]

yeah but there is no Roman history with this attraction.

[@royvillasin5287]

when you think of your loved-ones, do you still look for Roman history?

[@daywalker6002]

+c2 Tea for me one has nothing to do with the other. My opinion is mine, you have a right to yours as well.

[@comeonmate3743]

It’s the history of leah. Not Rome. Just the architectural design. You obviously did not understand what the commentator says

[@stormkarding228]

Ang hinahanap ko kunmg may taga ibang sekta bang inggit at sasabihin na idolatry bwahaha

[@mama-pd3ci]

joke ang ako

[@sidapolinario]

[@spiderliliez]

Much money was spent... means a lot to the owner, but doesn't capture any relevance for others. Sadly, only time can make it relevant for its visitors.

[@brianderwinbersamin3597]

SPIDER LILIEZ they are rich ok

[@jinmanz5185]

they are not about of tourist attraction, its not about money and profits its about his undying love and besides they are billionaire .they owned queendsland hotel all over visayas and more businesses kaya hayaan muna.

A showcase of gaudiness and tackiness. What is a Roman architecture doing in a place like the Philippines. Boggles the mind! A tourist attraction for the gullible.

[@markbarker6739]

You don't get it do you the guy built it to honour his love for his wife in his own way it's not meant to be like any where else it his own design he owns the land he paid for the thing to be put up he didn't care if it looked out of place it's a statement of love not a money making scheme
