The best shopping experiences in Cebu can be found spread across the Cebu Metropolitan area. This includes Cebu City itself, but also Mandaue City and Lapu-Lapu City on Mactan Island, plus other smaller cities around the province. As one of the largest and most populated urban area in the Philippines, after Manila, Metro Cebu naturally has a lot of shopping options.
Large shopping malls are the prime destinations for shopping, as well as for dining. Modern and air-conditioned, they’re a very attractive option on a hot day. For a more traditional and down-to-earth experience, markets are also extremely popular in Cebu, whether they sell fresh produce or T-shirts and accessories.

Large parts of the market are under metal roofing and, with little air circulation, it can get very stuffy and sweaty, especially in the midday heat – make sure you keep well hydrated!
