Amazing Cathedral
Dec 2022
Although it is showing it's age. it is still beautiful place to go. We were lucky that there was a wedding when we visited the church. The flower decorations has added beauty to it's serene surroundings.

They could make it a better cathedral as this is a touristy spot
Dec 2019
Almost every town in the Philippines has a major church or cathedral since the majority of Filipino people are Roman Catholic and in Puerto Princesa’s case, they have the Immaculate Concepcion Cathedral.
It’s actually perfect to drop by to a church to give thanks to the Higher Power because the tour is before my birthday. The church looks serene and simple, perfect for those churchgoers every Sunday to have a calm and peaceful mass.

Good church, well maintained, clean, spacious, not too hot inside, just right in front of Plaza Cartel and close to Puerto Princesa bay

Filthy facilities
Feb 2020 • Couples
A cathedral is the centre of faith in any city.

While the seating area within the church was relatively clean, beggars out the front, filth all around the building, and toilets with no water signals that the Archbishop(?) has other things on his mind than catering to the needs of his flock.

Went to the church on a weekday. We found it to be very serene and bright. Worth the stop if you want to visit a classic church.

Puertos main church.
Feb 2020 • Couples
Architecturally nothing to write home about. Internally quite poor actually and with a weird dress code, almost like a Muslim temple. If you're by the bay, have a look.

A wedding was in progress so we didn’t get to see inside - we stopped on our city tour. Beautiful church from the outside

It's a stop on the half day city tour. It's nice inside but very typical of a Catholic Church in the Philippines.

Beautiful cathedral, even more impressive on the inside than the outside
Sep 2019
This cathedral in the heart of Puerto Princesa is located right next to the Plaza Cuartel. They hold mass in both English and Filipino multiple times a day and is decorated with impressive wooden arches and paintings of the 12 apostles on the roof.
